Hello and Welcome all potential citizens of Para Bellum
Para Bellum is a primarily military-focused county, but as with any county, we understand the necessity of non-military pursuits. Pursuits such as science, economics, crafting, and farming, as strong military relies not only on its soldiers, but also its supply lines.
Military
The foundation of our military is the Para Bellum Military Academy, which will organize and fund the education, training, and gear allotments of our troops. Being a military academy, enrollment will require a commitment to serve in our military for a period of time. This commitment will be contractually enforced. Included in this are regular mandatory training exercises to keep our soldiers sharp and battle ready. Of course we do not expect our soldiers to do this for free, so in addition to training and outfitting, all soldiers are regularly paid. In times of peace these soldiers will patrol our roads and borders, ensuring peace and stability. In times of war, well, they will do what is necessary to defend the sovereignty of our county and the sovereignty of our duchy.
Science
Science is an important aspect to any society and Para Bellum is no different. We strive to advance our military and logistics technology as quickly and efficiently as possible. Our aim being to have the most advanced equipment available to Mann to better defend ourselves and our allies. This includes both Research and Development to improve the technologies we already have and discover entirely new ones. As well as research expeditions to find new materials for our researchers and artisans to work with.
Economy
Trade
Even now our diplomats and leaders are working on trade deals across the Duchy and beyond. While specifics will depend on our placement and who are neighbors are, we are working with a wide range of leaders and traders to ensure our crafters have access the best materials at fair prices.
Crafting
As a military county, crafters will be in high demand. From armor and weapons to consumer goods and shoes, Para Bellum is looking for all kinds of crafters to supply and maintain our forces. For crafters of particularly high skill level we even offer tax breaks as an incentive to join us.
Land Use
We plan to allocate land based on specific economic purpose to better organize our economy and prevent unnecessary waste. This includes industrial zones, warehouse districts, agriculture zones, and more. We also seek ideas for sustainable farming practices for quick, but stable growth.

Viscount Pangu
I'm a meta/power gamer. I focus entirely on how to efficiently play a game, and the best way to win. Creating SOP's and studying new forms of efficient gaming is what I find enjoyable. As a leader I will be there for domestic pursuits and secondary military leadership, providing my counsel and abilities as best I can. I will be there to help manage community ideas, planning, and implementation. I will be here to assist Bellum as advisor and second in command of the county to handle all affairs and paperwork. Feel free to message me with any inquiries or ideas. I believe our mission for military might and strategy is the right way to excel and I'm excited for our citizens future.
So if you’re a solider looking for a professional order to train and equip you, a scientist looking to protect those who serve or destroy those were would serve against us, or a trader, farmer, or craftsmen looking to support military goals; Look no further than Para Bellum.
