Overview
Redania was a despotic monarchy that prized itself for its peasantry and the wheat they produced. Redania was a name based off the Witcher universe, in which both Redania in Elgeis and the Witcher universe share many commonalities with medieval Poland (but aren't entirely based off it). In Elgeis, Redania was headed under Erjan101 as Duke of Zolotow and Baron of Zolotow. He had been employed off as an Icedale token to Redania and was thus temporarily serving the King of Redania.
Language
The Redanians spoke Redainer. Essentially, it was English but with the ending "-er" added to every word. Words such as "I", "you", "be", or "week" were not written as "weeker" or "youer" due to conflicts with other words. Instead, they were written as "I'er" or "week'er". However, for most nouns, adjectives, and verbs a Redanian would have pronounced or written sentences such as "How are you today" as "Hower areer you'er todayer." Other issues with the language were dealt with whatever the speaker deemed best to use the "-er" ending in a logical fashion.
Religion
The Redanians worshipped the Northern Pantheon and the Eternal Fire. The Northern Pantheon consisted of many ancient gods and deities such as Kreve, god of expansion, power, and energy. Redania also permitted the practice of the Vailan's local religion, Oarfanism. The Eternal Fire on the other hand was a hip, new religion that prized itself in the light and illuminating darkness. This often involved consolidating the power base for human-only inhabitants and the Eternal Fire thus despised all non-humans.

Anthem
Long is the way we have come
Still, nothing changes under the sun
The day we lay ahold
The wind rocks the fields of gold
Zero sum is the name of the game?
Gain or lose My win Is your loss
Have your cake and eat it too
Long is the way we have come
Still nothing changes under the sun
Few have found the stone
Searching for the fields of gold
The finest of craftsmen forged
For day and night
Deep down
Lost at sea
Their great feat now lies
Is a draw the only win?
Would a tie double the loss?
A fight
For existence
Life-death: 0-0
Long is the way we have come
Still nothing changes under the sun
Firmly we keep our course
Fighting for fields of gold
