Hey here, it's Colorband. I created Rivland. I also design logos here! Most of this is an attempt at worldbuilding, so enjoy (I guess)!

Rivland - an atlas
Rivland is a country on the Meridecian coast. Robert Thomas founded the country in 1857 after a war with Anglosaw, who had been occupying the country since some time in the 1600s. It is a nondescript country, not having any major events to it's name apart from the Manathanburgh International Film Festival (although it has been rumored recently that the government have been planning a Manathanburgh bid for the 2022 Summer Olympics). However, if you do end up there [as this writer has], try the fish - especially in a coastal town.
