CHANCES ARE WE BRUISE THE SAME, A FAMILY TREE DESPERATE FOR RAIN A THIRST ONLY DESERTS KNOW BEST, A HURT SO AT HOME IN OUR CHESTS ye ye the ranks should be pretty simple! it'd just be:
- emperor / empress - nobles, palace court - scholars, bureaucrats - landowners - peasants, merchants, artisans - slaves (if we're gonna have slavery be a thing here?)
er idk what dynasty though,,,,

YOU WERE THE ONE WHO TAUGHT ME THE COURAGE OF STARS BEFORE YOU LEFT AND YOU SHOWED ME HOW LIGHT CARRIES ON ENDLESSLY, EVEN AFTER DEATH edit: actually i think we should use the qing dynasty!! jade was highly regarded among the nouveau riche,,, so that fits the name better, right? also,,,, are we going to have nephirite be more important, or jadeite? it could be a source of division among the people or smth,,,, ooh or there could be political parties,,, the country could be split over which type is more important, and which was the type of jade in the legend (the one we came up with last night)?

AND IF IGNORANCE IS TRULY BLISS, THEN I GUESS I MUST BE IN HEAVEN BUT THIS HESITANT KISS KEEPS SENDING ME BACK TO THE GRASP OF THE SEA all of that sounds good to me !! also !! we need chinese festivals !!
- new years festivals - moon festivals etc........ im really tired n can't think i'll add to this tomorrow ^^;;
also,,,, let's have slavery be a thing. they can get slaves from other groups. and jinhong, linhong, and yanhong wouldn't have to be like,,, super sadistic or anything, or necessarily think it's 'correct'. they could just be going along with it, because they're used to having them,,, like slavery was already in practice when they were born or something. so they wouldn't be the founders of the group or anything. :^) however, they are in support of it, not because they believe it's 'morally correct', but because it's a source of income for them, and for slavery to be abolished, it would leave the nation's economy crippled.
also, the xu family is currently in power because they are the most compatible with spirit energy (let's find a term for this lol), which means they can contract with spirits and utilize their powers and abilities for their own purposes, therefore making them the most powerful, which equates to them being the most "blessed" and therefore the most fit to rule.

CHANCES ARE WE BRUISE THE SAME, A FAMILY TREE DESPERATE FOR RAIN A THIRST ONLY DESERTS KNOW BEST, A HURT SO AT HOME IN OUR CHESTS smh i meant to get on yesterdayyy hontou ni gomennnn
i love all of this so far tho asdfghjkl,,,,, and yanhong could be more into the slavery thing if u guys want? we need someone to be into it to really keep it alive, otherwise there's really no point, right??? cx
aaand,,, we probably ought to really specify the ranks of the group's hierarchy,,,, like "palace court" is a bit vague oops... i know they had different boards and such,,,,, we should probably include the Grand Council ofc, and maybe some of the more important boards? also, if they start conquering neighboring nations and such,,, maybe we ought to establish some sort of viceroy rank as well.
aaaa anni-nee, seli-nee, do you have ideas on which boards we should include??? and ofc i can keep looking more into the imperial court,,, the qing dynasty's imperial court was particularly elaborate, according to Ama... Ama told me lots actually but i didn't remember it all.... i could probably ask her again, when she's not at work.
