Would a really big war against a common enemy or a huge depopulation event fix this?

If a local depopulation event occurs, would the magical races move in to this place or such?

How much progress have we made on fireblood since we first found it? Is it more deadly, advanced, etcera?

Ah. Is there a way that we can try to keep the magic/fanciful stuff around or are we just doomed to lose our ability to interact with magical stuff as the game/history goes on?

No, the future of the world is set on being de-magified as humans become the supreme race on it. I have few ways to take it back to 'magic-filled fantasy world', but that would mean lots of bad things to happen to Methiant in meanwhile. Keep eyes peeled though!

How many dynasties we ruled? only Yoean?

3 so far, one represented by each main SPAMKINGDOM game (original, + and #).

How much progress have we made on fireblood since we first found it? Is it more deadly, advanced, etcera?

At first it was Greek Fire-like substance manufactured in far west. As the chemisty behind it was worked out in the east, it was remade more into standard gunpowder and explosive substance it is used as today (simply because its easier to handle and has more uses).

Would it be possible for one of our kings to become a sourcerer or similiar type of ability?

Has their been cases of a human, dwarf or elf ruling another species society, and how well did it end up for them and their line?

Is it weird that I'm kinda hoping a lot of bad things happen to Methiant now?

Ah. Well that's sad. I've always really liked the magical parts of the game.

So how have the people of the Luathbas region changed culturally now since the time of Luathbas? I'm already pretty knowledgeable about how we've changed religiously but I'm curious if there has been any similar extreme culture changes?

I'm also really curious about this.

Damnit people, this is why I said to keep the truce. Because now everyone's ganging up on the cats.
Also, don't forget to contact your local Eldritch Being(s), so that they can help with our mission to destroy the universe.

We were a vassal of the old Dahnia Kingdom in the second game. Tried rebelling in the second generation of that Dynasty and failed. That's how the second game ended. The kings of Lametania are descended from that guy who rebelled via his son Solus who managed to inherit Lametania through his mother. Him inheriting also let him survive the purge conducted on all the other members of the second game dynasty.

No. Humans are incapable of magic.

Almost none, except few brief stints, arguably the time of SPAMKINGDOM when Houlandin II had elven wife-queen also counts.

So how have the people of the Luathbas region changed culturally now since the time of Luathbas? I'm already pretty knowledgeable about how we've changed religiously but I'm curious if there has been any similar extreme culture changes?

Luathbas peoples were strongest united in times before and during Luathbas, the first unity achieved during Tygwand Dynasty of the early 600s.

Since then they've drifted into three cultures and kingdoms; Felonsine (western Luathbas), Methiantese (eastern Luathbas) and Ceodwellian (south-eastern Luathbas), the latter is very strongly mixed with Parsians as those lands were Parsian till conquest by Houlandine Dynasty.

Ceodwellians and Methiantese got many new faiths going with them, while Felonsines mostly stuck to Pantheonism; thus Felonsines could be said be the 'true' Luathbasians.

As I'm pretty sure we've conquered most of those three regions does that mean that we've united the three Luathbasians groups under us? Seeing as how we've taken most if not all of the core lands of Luathbas could we reclaim Luathbas as their successors? Also does Pantheonism have more actually real mystical aspects to it compared to other Luathbasian religions? Since we've only really seen Pantheon spirit stuff and not mystical spirit stuff for other religions?

Edit moving this up to a different post: Also our Hurthlings aren't just going to up and disappear someday because of the decline of magic are they? Because I'm kinda afraid they might as a fanciful race. If we somehow manage to some other fanciful races under our rule before they start hiding will they disappear? Is it also possible to get Hurthlings to spread more through out our Kingdom instead of just be isolated to their valley?

Clearly Haspen is planning on taking Spamkingdom all the way to the near-future setting-wise, then creating a Shadowrun-like scenario.

You should really look to the wilderness for your stealth ideas, it has been doing it much longer than you have after all. Take squids for example, that ink trick works pretty well, and in water too! So you just sneak into the dam upsteam, dump several megatons of distressed squid into it, then break the dam. Boom, you suddenly have enough water-proof stealth for a whole city!

Technically, yes. Though you would have to switch to Pantheonism first to truly champion Methiant as 'continuators of Luathbas' :P

Pantheonism comes from the worship of Gods that Descended (the day of that event started the AD calendar). While their mythology got wonky, their deities numbers' inflated and their magical powers waned greatly, they still have the most mysticism going around, what with mostly working purifications, rituals and augury.

Well I'm definitely going back to supporting converting to Pantheonism then!

Also editted these over to this post: Also our Hurthlings aren't just going to up and disappear someday because of the decline of magic are they?

They're second least magic race of the world. They will slowly spread, and with enough care they will prolly not die off.
