Clothes
All citizens would wear traditional Penlish clothes during the Day of Unity. For women, they would wear long and colorful skirts and shirts. For men, they would wear black pants and white calicos. In addition, all citizens in each town, vote for one male and female from their own towns. They need to pick the ones, who are worth representing each gender. The elected females from each town are called “Nadia” and “Nadio” for males. These people’s names go under their “Honorable board” of the town that they live in. In addition, they would get many privileges to access to everything in their towns for free. For example, they could get free massages from a massage shop or even free dinner in a restaurant in their town. However, this privileges last for only three days. Although these advantages do not last for long, there are a lot of citizens who try to be perfect in their outfits. Of course, they do this to earn the advantage of getting free things and such. Because there are plenty of people trying hard to get elected, the voting process is, indeed, challenging.

Ex) ♇5 [5 pelos]
An important part of Penland’s history
A big riot occurred in the 1800s. The citizens were mad about the fact that they did not play any role in the government and that the king was not ruling as the citizens wanted. Then, a man named Sylvester Green showed up. He came and suggested both the citizens and the royals and nobles to exchange their roles; citizens getting the upper class position where they need to govern the country while the royals and nobles were having peaceful time doing nothing. The citizens were first ecstatic and took the positions of the upper class. Although the citizens had chances to do anything that they wanted with their country, they gave up on ruling the government and such, because they realized that it was extremely difficult to rule a country and to maintain the economic situations. After their realization, the riot was over and everyone went back to place where they were from; nobles and royals governing the country while the inhabitants did their own things. The royals and the citizens once again, maintained a good relationship between each other. Without Sylvester’s suggestions, the riot could have been still going on until today.

13. Religion Buddhism Natural Beliefs (The traditional religion)
