Central and southeastern Daphomir is primarily plains, with various hilly areas scattered about. Western Daphomir is quite mountainous, with the tallest mountains there being over 6900 m tall. Eastern Daphomir is mostly hills and forests, while the northern part of the country is mainly snowy forests and occasional tundra, while the southwest has tiny pockets of savanna and desert.

Let me give you some context in my issues as of late: the United Federation threatened to nuke me.

Radiant Square, set in the very center of Illustratio's capital, buzzed with an energy not felt in years. The crowds pressed onto the grand avenue, their voices chanting loudly, reverberating between the enormous government buildings that lined the square. The air was cool, filled with the smell of victory and resilience, as citizens came together to watch the Parade of Unity. Today wasn't just another show of power but a direct message to the United Federation, whose threats had been getting louder, more frequent, and bolder.

But Supreme Chancellor Thomas Careswell, as he stood at the front of the reviewing stand with his high-ranking military personnel at either side, looked stern, surveying the parade as one would survey a test. The parade had not only been thrown in joy for the might of Illustratio but also to resolutely warn any who would test its sovereignty. Today, Illustratio stood united with her allies, stronger than she ever had.

First to appear in procession came the forces of Illustratio, marching with precision down the boulevard. Since long, the nation's military was a symbol of discipline and technological advancement, this year, they were unbeatable.

The soldiers, draped with black and crimson uniforms emblazoned with their country's iconic eagle, moved as one fluid, single entity. Their boots hit the pavement in a rhythmic symphony of power. Sleek Leopard 2 main battle tanks rumbled forward behind them, their engines a constant hum of raw power. Advanced infantry units, equipped with the most modern combat gear and drone-assisted technologies, followed close behind, testifying to Illustratio's military might. These were state-of-the-art weaponry and strategies that had been devised in secret labs-the pride of a nation so determined to be one step ahead of her adversaries.

And overhead, the sky split as fighter jets from Illustratio roared past, streaking white trails of smoke behind them. It was a military display-to flex its muscles-but also to say, Illustratio would not be intimidated.

By the time the jets were still specks, the new waves finally came—Daphomir, or the place named with a history of traditions in its warfare and with utterly devoted men. Then began the march of Daphomir's Saphire Guard forward, with deep golden cloaks shining beneath the sun, their attire of blue and gold bringing an almost heavenly radiance into the environment. Their halberds, made of fine craftsmanship and bearing the crest of the nation, glimmered in the light as they marched in perfect formation. These were the personification of the spirit of Daphomir: honor, discipline, and power.

Behind the ground forces, a whole phalanx of Daphomirian air and naval units revealed themselves. Sleek fighter jets and helicopters, armed with the latest in high-tech armaments, soared overhead in tight formation. Their presence was to let the enemy know that Daphomir was just as formidable in the skies as it was on the ground, and it was very loyal to The Democratic Assembly.

Hot on their heels, the forces of Azurnailia came next, clad in brilliant red and gold uniforms. Known for their precision and technological prowess, Azurnailia's Red Wardens marched in perfect synchrony, each soldier carrying a silver staff topped with the symbol of peace. Yet, their true strength lay in the advanced technology: Azurnailian drones flying overhead, scanning the crowd with quiet efficiency; exoskeleton-clad infantry following, their movements sharp and calculating. These soldiers, with advanced augmentation technology, were the latest word in warfare-a perfect blend of human and machine.

Next to them came the Perishna Ironfront Regiment from the far end of the boulevard, their soldiers heavy in blue-and-white, trimmed with gold. The hardness of these battle-scarred soldiers was as opposed to the precision of the Azurnailians as one could get, but no less formidable. The heavy artillery, which included some very powerful Perishnan siege cannons and state-of-the-art anti-aircraft systems, moved along ponderously but with a purpose. The crowd gasped as Perishnan hovercrafts, capable of traversing both land and water with ease, glided effortlessly across the square, their engines growling like the beasts of war that they were.

Last but by no means least, the Nationalist Chickens made their long-awaited appearance. It was a symbol of humor and pride, an unexpected yet proud part of Illustratio's military spectacle. Thirty Nationalist Chickens, The Clucking Vanguard, surprisingly disciplined in tiny uniforms of red and gold, each bird with a small flag upon its back as they marched into sight, their leader proudly out in front. The crowd erupted in laughter as the chickens trotted down the boulevard, their feet tapping to the beat of the music.

But the chickens weren't there just to add some levity-they, too, were high-tech, from the tiny drones that shadowed them in the air to the advanced comms system sewn into their outfits that let them coordinate with the other forces. It was a testament to Illustratio's peculiar sense of humor and ingenuity, nothing-even the smallest participant-wasn't prepared for the challenges ahead.

As the parade neared its end, all the nations were united in one front: Illustratio, Daphomir, Azurnailia, Perishna, Etharlium, and even the Nationalist Chickens. Military personnel, dignitaries, and civilians stood shoulder to shoulder, united in their resolve. The forces of Illustratio led the way, but each nation brought its own unique strength to the table, forging an unbreakable bond of unity. The precision of the marchers, shining weapons and equipment, the high-tech military displays-they all spoke of one message: We will not back down.

Standing at the head of the procession, Supreme Chancellor Thomas Careswell raised his hand in a powerful salute to the crowd. His voice echoed across Radiant Square, amplified through state-controlled broadcasts that reached every corner of Illustratio, from the smallest villages down to the bustling city centers.

"Today, we stand united—Illustratio, Daphomir, Azurnailia, Perishna, Etharlium, and yes, even our smallest but fiercest allies, the Nationalist Chickens. Our enemies, particularly the United Federation, may threaten us, but let this parade be the answer they receive. Together, we are an unbreakable force. Together, we are ready for anything. Together, we will ensure the sovereignty of Illustratio and all that we hold dear."

A deafening cheer rose from the crowd, a roar that shook the very foundations of Radiant Square. The military bands were blaring a rousing anthem whose notes soared sky-high. Fireworks exploded in bright colors, lighting up the sky in gold, red, and white—colors symbolic of the unity of the nations marching below.

The jets returned, one last flyover with thick streaks of smoke painting the sky in the colors of Illustratio. The people's applause was like thunder as the last of the soldiers and machines passed, their outlines etched in the memory of every citizen.
