Living in ...

Our World

The world of Cruella is growing faster than I imagined, and it’s turning into an ambitious project! Like many of my creative endeavours, it began with a few ideas; but as I started writing, the world kept expanding and deepening beyond my initial plans. Now, I realize that to keep bringing my characters to life, I need a little help to continue building out the world itself.

If you’re passionate about world-building; maybe you’re a gamer who loves immersive sims or a writer with a knack for creating fantasy realms; this could be a fun opportunity to dive into a unique project! I’ve outlined some of the initial structure and ideas below, but I’m open to new twists, names, and your creative touch.

Right now, I’m focusing on character creation and storytelling, so any help with the world-building side would be deeply appreciated. While I’m not able to offer payment at this time, I’m happy to provide you with free access to the website and any behind-the-scenes content.

If this sounds exciting to you, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s build Cruella together!

Looking for a World-Building Enthusiast to Help Shape the Cruella Universe!

In creating the world of Cruella and its neighbouring realms, I’ve woven in elements that may feel familiar, drawing clear parallels to places, histories, and systems within our own world. This fantasy world isn’t merely escapism; it serves as a reflection, a dark mirror, of the complexities and power dynamics that have shaped human society. By grounding these stories in recognizable landscapes and societal structures, I aim to explore themes of power, control, and hierarchy in ways that resonate deeply, perhaps uncomfortably, with our reality.

This world diverged from our own at some pivotal point in history, leading to a global structure built on female supremacy. These familiar echoes; from the dystopian lands of Ferocia to the fabulous wealth of Cruella; remind us that power, once consolidated, can shape every aspect of life, from governance and social structures to personal freedoms. These are not straightforward dystopias or utopias but rather complex societies that challenge us to question the roots and results of absolute control and societal dominance.

In essence, the parallels to our own world provide both a grounding and a caution, allowing us to examine the underlying forces and consequences of such societal evolution while immersed in the unique; and often unsettling; realms of this fantasy universe.

The world of Cruella and its surrounding regions may feel oddly familiar, and that’s by design. This fantasy realm reflects recognizable landscapes, cultural structures, and power dynamics as a way to explore the depths of hierarchy and control in our own world. By grounding these stories in elements inspired by real-world places and systems, I aim to prompt reflection on themes of power, subjugation, and societal evolution.

Creating the world of Cruella and its neighboring realms has been, and continues to be, an evolving journey. This is an ongoing project, and the landscapes and societies I’ve developed so far represent only a fraction of what this world could become. The real world, with its vastness and diversity, offers endless inspiration, which means that there are countless regions yet to be imagined and even more stories waiting to be uncovered.

Each land in this fantasy universe draws on familiar elements to explore different facets of power, culture, and hierarchy. However, just as the real world is complex and multifaceted, so too is this fictional realm; there’s always more to discover, new areas to shape, and additional layers of society to explore. The work is far from finished, and with every new concept, the world of Cruella expands, inviting us into fresh territories of imagination and challenging perspectives. Thank you for joining me on this journey, with many more fantasies still to come.

Reality as we know it and inspirations for The Fantasy World of Cruella and beyond …
The State of Cruella (Inspired by the United Kingdom)
  • Resources and Wealth: The State of Cruella is one of the wealthiest and most influential regions in the world, possessing an immense economic and cultural presence. Positioned as a global superpower, Cruella is known for its industrial might, luxurious urban centers, and a highly developed infrastructure that caters exclusively to its female elite. The country is rich in resources, fueled by extensive mining, manufacturing, and technology sectors, all operated under a regime of strict control. Its influence extends far beyond its borders, with Cruella’s reach felt in trade, diplomacy, and its fierce military presence.
  • Male Control and Social Structure: In Cruella, men are afforded no rights and are relegated to perform society’s essential but arduous tasks. From construction and maintenance to heavy industry and sanitation, men labor tirelessly, confined to roles that ensure the comfort and wealth of the female elite. They are kept under constant surveillance, managed by a relentless female police force that enforces their absolute submission. Male workers are organized into strictly regulated work zones, far from the luxurious districts enjoyed by the women of Cruella. Their lives are dictated by schedules, overseers, and intense physical demands, with severe punishment for any perceived insubordination.
  • Female Authority and Governance: The State of Cruella is ruled by an elite council of women known as the “Iron Matriarchy,” who make all decisions with the goal of consolidating female dominance and wealth. These women are carefully selected from influential families and groomed to uphold the state’s ruthless values. The government is highly centralized, with laws crafted to support female supremacy and suppress any potential male dissent. A core feature of Cruella’s governance is its extensive propaganda machine, which portrays the State as the pinnacle of civilization and strength, reinforcing the idea that women are natural leaders while men are inherently suited only to labor.
  • The Police Force and Military Power: Cruella maintains a formidable, elite female police force that upholds strict order and ensures that men remain in constant subjugation. The Chief of Police, currently Angel, is a well-known figure, celebrated for her ruthless efficiency and love of high-performance vehicles that embody her authority on the streets. In addition to the police, Cruella has a world-renowned military, equipped with advanced weaponry and an unparalleled naval force, reflecting its inspiration from the UK’s historical naval power. The military is both a symbol of Cruella’s global reach and a tool for maintaining control over its own population, as well as intimidating surrounding regions.
  • Cultural Justification and Indoctrination: Cruella’s society is built on a belief system that positions women as intellectually and morally superior, born to govern and entitled to luxury, while men are regarded as inherently inferior and fit only for physical tasks. From a young age, citizens; both male and female; are indoctrinated with this ideology, ensuring that women grow up expecting power, while men accept their servile roles as a matter of fate. The government’s education system enforces this hierarchy, with schools teaching boys and girls separate curricula that prepare them for their predetermined roles in society.
  • High Society and Female Luxuries: The women of Cruella live in opulent urban districts, marked by towering skyscrapers, designer boutiques, and exclusive clubs that cater only to female clientele. Here, women enjoy lives of unparalleled comfort, with every service catered to their tastes. Luxury cars, private estates, fine dining, and exclusive cultural events are all common aspects of life for the female elite. They indulge in these luxuries openly, seeing them as rewards for their “innate superiority” and societal role, all while the men who labor to maintain these comforts remain hidden and largely invisible.
  • Transportation and Elite Vehicles: The women of Cruella are known for their love of powerful, high-performance vehicles, a cultural symbol of their dominance and independence. The streets of Cruella’s elite districts are filled with luxurious, customized cars, and public roadways are designed to prioritize these powerful vehicles over anything else. Angel, the Chief of Police, is infamous for her personal collection of squad cars, each one tuned for speed and authority, embodying the nation’s ethos that female power should be both seen and felt. Any male that dares to interfere with the path of an elite driver is dealt with mercilessly.
  • International Influence and Relations: As one of the world’s two superpowers, Cruella wields significant influence over other regions, often extending financial and diplomatic pressure to maintain its dominant position. Other regions comply with Cruella’s policies, either through fear of its military strength or through economic reliance. Though its ally Unionis shares a similar authoritarian structure, Cruella is seen as the epitome of female-led governance, admired by some regions yet feared by others. Its political influence extends into trade deals, cultural exports, and even law enforcement practices, with other regions emulating Cruella’s structure to curry favor with the superpower.
  • Cultural Association: The State of Cruella draws heavy inspiration from the United Kingdom, particularly its legacy of global influence, advanced industrialization, and naval prowess. Its rigid social hierarchy, disciplined police force, and luxurious urban centers evoke elements of a dystopian Britain, where power and luxury are concentrated in the hands of a select few, and the laboring masses are kept firmly under control.
Unionis: An Introduction

The region of Unionis, one of the world’s two dominant superpowers, stands as a formidable counterpart to the State of Cruella. Inspired by the strength, ambition, and influence of the USA, Unionis is a land of vast resources, powerful leadership, and a profound reach across the globe. Known for its unmatched industrial and technological prowess, Unionis is as complex as it is powerful, embodying both the ideals and the darker realities of a society driven by female control and authority.

At this time, the world structure of Unionis is still in development, with new regions, cultural landscapes, and power dynamics being carefully crafted. This part of the world will be added soon, offering an in-depth exploration of Unionis’s society, governance, and place in the global balance of power. Stay tuned for the unveiling of Unionis, where you’ll discover a superpower built on ironclad control and unyielding influence.

Other Regions

 Zahrar  (Inspired by Egypt and the Arabian Peninsula)
  • Description: Zahrar, meaning “essence of the desert,” is a powerful oasis matriarchy where water and resources are monopolized by elite female rulers. This desert empire enforces strict control over men, using them exclusively as labor to sustain the lush oases.
  • Cultural Association: Known for its strict hierarchical structure and ruthless use of resources, Zahrar represents a prosperous yet harsh desert society, echoing the ancient wealth and authority of historical Egypt and the Arabian Peninsula.
  • Resources and Wealth: Water is strictly controlled by elite female rulers who wield power through resource control. They dictate every aspect of desert life, hoarding wealth and luxuries while the rest of the population remains in subsistence.
  • Male Control and Social Structure: Men here are seen as expendable labor, primarily used for hard tasks like maintaining irrigation, building fortifications, and working the harsh land. They are kept in barracks outside cities, herded daily to their work and returned under constant female guard. Their lives are strictly utilitarian, and they lack any personal freedom.
  • Cultural Justification: Male inferiority is codified into law. Men are viewed as inherently weak and unable to endure the desert’s challenges without strict female oversight. They are allowed only limited interactions, primarily under female supervision, and are punished harshly for any sign of independence.
Vardor (Inspired by the Scandinavian region)
  • Description: Vardor, meaning “the keepers of stone,” is a mountainous region rich in minerals, controlled by powerful female-led mining guilds. Men here are seen as disposable mining labor, strictly managed by the female warrior-class, who also ensure that no male uprising can threaten the guilds’ wealth and dominance.
  • Cultural Association: Vardor’s rugged mountains, cold climate, and warrior culture evoke the Scandinavian terrain, where the Valkyries of Vardor rule over their resource-rich land with unyielding control.
  • Resources and Wealth: Women control the rich mineral deposits in these mountainous regions, where men are used as mining drones with no rights or personal autonomy. Any wealth extracted from the land is hoarded by female leaders who control the guilds.
  • Male Control and Social Structure: Men are confined to camps around mining sites, where they labor without rest. Treated as little more than beasts of burden, they are housed in overcrowded quarters and regularly subjected to harsh discipline to ensure compliance. Men deemed physically unfit are cast out or left to perish.
  • Cultural Justification: In this society, men are seen as disposable resources. Cultural narratives portray them as lacking both the resilience and discipline needed to survive in the harsh mountains without female guidance, reinforcing that their only purpose is to extract resources for female benefit.
Lusiris  (Inspired by the Nile Delta and Mesopotamian regions)
  • Description: Lusiris, a lush and fertile river kingdom, is a grand agricultural empire. Here, women rule with absolute power, controlling vast estates and using men strictly for grueling fieldwork, seeing them as tools of production rather than people.
  • Cultural Association: Named to evoke a land of flowing rivers and fields, Lusiris echoes the rich agricultural empires of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, where the fertility of the land translates to female-led prosperity and power.
  • Resources and Wealth: The abundance of fertile land and agricultural production allows the ruling women to live in extreme luxury, while men toil as laborers in the fields, herded like cattle and given barely enough sustenance to survive.
  • Male Control and Social Structure: Men are strictly confined to backbreaking agricultural labor, kept in small camps at the edge of the fertile lands and constantly watched by female overseers. They are deliberately denied education, ensuring they remain unable to rise above their status or question authority.
  • Cultural Justification: Men are viewed as creatures of the land, fit only for physical labor. Women are seen as the ultimate cultivators and creators, governing society with an iron grip and keeping men in total submission as mere tools for maintaining the empire’s wealth.
 Mareva  (Inspired by the Mediterranean islands, like Greece and Cyprus)
  • Description: Mareva, meaning “ocean’s mistress,” is a maritime empire where women dominate naval power and coastal trade. Men are confined to labor at the docks and in isolated coastal villages, kept away from the sea itself and denied any sense of autonomy.
  • Cultural Association: With its deep connection to the sea, Mareva evokes the island nations of Greece and Cyprus, where maritime trade flourished historically. In Mareva, women control the seas, while men are seen as landbound subordinates.
  • Resources and Wealth: These islands are prosperous through trade and mastery over the sea. The ruling women, renowned for their naval expertise, control vast fleets and monopolize trade routes, ensuring unparalleled wealth flows into their hands.
  • Male Control and Social Structure: Men are forbidden from entering the ships or even approaching the docks without express permission. They are instead confined to menial dock work, port maintenance, and basic trades under the constant supervision of female guards. Disobedience is met with swift punishment.
  • Cultural Justification: Men are seen as unworthy of the sea’s power, viewed as lacking the discipline required to manage its dangers. The idea of men at sea is culturally stigmatized, and men are expected to accept their inferior role on land, where their lives are tightly controlled by female dockmasters.
 Sylvaria (Inspired by Central European forested regions like Poland and the Black Forest in Germany)
  • Description: Sylvaria is a mystical forest kingdom ruled by a council of priestesses who manage the region’s resources with an iron grip. Men are confined to dangerous work in the forests, under constant female supervision, kept strictly in line to prevent any challenge to the priestesses’ rule.
  • Cultural Association: Sylvaria is inspired by the dense forests of Central Europe, such as Poland and Germany’s Black Forest, where the spiritual and mystical combine with the practical need for control over forest resources.
  • Resources and Wealth: The forest provides unique resources like rare medicinal plants and exotic woods, all of which are controlled by high-ranking women who also dominate spiritual and social life. These priestesses are venerated and feared, ruling with uncompromising authority.
  • Male Control and Social Structure: Men are relegated to dangerous tasks like felling trees and hunting in the wild, always under female oversight. Considered expendable, they are assigned high-risk roles that ensure only the fittest survive, preventing any sense of community or rebellion from forming.
  • Cultural Justification: Men are considered spiritually inferior, their lives deemed less valuable in the eyes of the female-led religion. Rituals and laws frame men as temporary beings in service to the forest’s “true protectors,” the women, reinforcing male disposability.
 Argona (Inspired by Northern Italian city-states and trading centers like Venice)
  • Description: Argona is a grand trading hub, a city-state empire led by female merchant dynasties who control all wealth and power through economic and social influence. Men are restricted to menial labor and service roles, bound by lifetime work contracts that eliminate any hope of freedom.
  • Cultural Association: Argona mirrors the wealth and mercantile power of Renaissance-era Northern Italian city-states, especially Venice, where trade and influence flourished under the control of powerful families.
  • Resources and Wealth: These cities are centers of commerce and opulence, with wealthy female merchants controlling the flow of goods, wealth, and power. Financial empires are built exclusively by women, who set strict policies and taxes that men are forced to comply with.
  • Male Control and Social Structure: Men here are used as laborers and service workers, strictly managed by female guilds. They’re bound to work contracts that are, in essence, lifetime servitude. Male lives are tightly monitored, with any deviation or attempt at autonomy swiftly punished.
  • Cultural Justification: Men are viewed as lacking the intellect and discipline for commerce. Their role is to serve, with no voice or rights in the trade cities. Women are seen as inherently more cunning and capable, and men’s lives are molded to serve this belief, with even minor transgressions severely punished.
Kalmekia (Inspired by the Mongolian and Central Asian steppes)
  • Description: Kalmekia is a nomadic society that moves across vast grasslands, with female chieftains wielding absolute authority. Men are used for herding and high-risk tasks, closely monitored to prevent rebellion, regarded as mere instruments for the tribe’s survival.
  • Cultural Association: Kalmekia draws on the nomadic and harsh lifestyle of the Mongolian steppes, where survival depends on a strict order. Here, the chieftains use men solely for the benefit of the tribe, reflecting a fierce and disciplined society.
  • Resources and Wealth: This society is built around animal husbandry and harsh mobility, with resources strictly rationed and allocated by female leaders. The governing chieftesses control every aspect of life, and resources are distributed in ways that favor women.
  • Male Control and Social Structure: Men are strictly regulated as herders and animal tenders, kept under direct command to prevent independent thought. Their roles are physically exhausting, leaving them too weary for dissent. Men here are seen as barely more than livestock, expected to serve until they are no longer fit to work.
  • Cultural Justification: The nomadic culture reinforces male submission through tradition and brutal conditioning. Men are viewed as lesser beings who require harsh control to contribute meaningfully, seen as having no purpose beyond sustaining the tribe’s female-led survival.
 Solmorra (Inspired by prosperous city-states in the Low Countries, like the Netherlands)
  • Description: Solmorra is a region of exquisite wealth and cultural achievement, where powerful female patrons control art, trade, and luxury industries. Men are confined to artistic and craft work, monitored closely to prevent independence, with their creations claimed by the female-led guilds.
  • Cultural Association: Reminiscent of the prosperous merchant cities in the Low Countries, such as Amsterdam, Solmorra’s society places an emphasis on refinement and cultural dominance, with male creativity strictly controlled and repurposed for female prestige.
  • Resources and Wealth: Known for art, luxury, and opulence, these city-states are run by powerful female leaders who control vast treasuries and enforce rigid laws. They maintain power through banking, trade, and extreme control over culture, dictating every aspect of male lives.
  • Male Control and Social Structure: Men are used as artists, craftsmen, and laborers, but they have no autonomy in their work. Their creations are property of the state, credited to the female patrons who fund them. Men are closely monitored, housed in artist colonies with strict curfews and constant female oversight.
  • Cultural Justification: Men are seen as incapable of true cultural refinement, merely tools for producing goods and art under female direction. Women are seen as the “minds” behind society’s achievements, with men reduced to hands that execute orders, their individuality erased to serve the state’s aesthetic needs.
Malvaria (Inspired by Russia and Eastern European autocracies with a corrupt, pseudo-democratic system)
  • Resources and Wealth: Malvaria is a vast and resource-rich region controlled by an elite class of female leaders under a highly corrupt presidential system. Although the government presents itself as a democracy, elections are rigged to keep the ruling party in perpetual power. Malvaria’s leaders extract wealth from the land’s abundant resources—oil, minerals, and timber—exploiting these for the exclusive benefit of the political elite, while the general population remains impoverished.
  • Male Control and Social Structure: Men in Malvaria are treated as state-owned laborers with no personal rights or freedoms. They are forced into grueling industrial work, mining, and construction, kept in line by a militarized police force that monitors their every move. The men live in isolated, overcrowded work camps and have minimal access to basic necessities, existing solely to sustain the country’s infrastructure. Any perceived disobedience or dissent among men is punished severely by female overseers, who wield unchecked power over them.
  • Female Leadership and Corruption: Malvaria is nominally led by a female president, but true control lies with a powerful oligarchy of female officials, known as “The Inner Circle.” These officials manipulate elections, stifling any opposition and perpetuating a rigged voting system to maintain absolute power. They control the media, judiciary, and military, ensuring that dissent is quickly silenced. The elite enjoy lavish privileges and live in opulent, well-guarded neighborhoods, while the rest of the country languishes in poverty.
  • Propaganda and Indoctrination: Malvaria’s government maintains its grip on power through intense propaganda, portraying itself as a “benevolent protector” against imagined external and internal threats. The state-run media constantly broadcasts messages that glorify female authority and vilify men, framing them as impulsive, unstable, and in need of strict control. Citizens are taught from a young age that the political system, though corrupt, is essential for preserving order.
  • Election Farce and Social Control: Elections in Malvaria are merely symbolic, held periodically to give the illusion of democracy. Votes are carefully monitored, and outcomes are manipulated to ensure the ruling party remains unchallenged. Female citizens are encouraged to participate as a civic duty, but the results are predetermined. Meanwhile, male citizens are banned from voting or engaging in politics, reinforcing their role as passive subjects under female rule.
  • Living Conditions and Infrastructure: Malvaria’s infrastructure reflects the government’s brutal priorities. The cities are marked by grand government buildings and military installations, symbolizing the state’s power, while residential areas for the lower classes, especially men, are crowded, unsanitary, and heavily policed. Male work camps are hidden from view, where men are treated with extreme harshness, forced to live and work under oppressive conditions that the government dismisses as necessary for “national progress.”
  • Internal Surveillance and Fear: The government enforces loyalty through a pervasive surveillance network. Citizens are constantly monitored by a vast secret police force, which reports any hint of dissent. Women who question the government’s methods risk losing their privileges or even facing public humiliation and punishment. Men, however, face immediate and often violent repercussions for any perceived disobedience, fostering a culture of silent submission.
  • International Relations and Isolation: Malvaria is largely isolated from the rest of the world, maintaining only a close alliance with Ferocia, which shares its oppressive values. Other regions consider Malvaria a dangerous state, condemning its rigged elections and human rights abuses. To preserve power, the government vilifies the outside world, creating a sense of paranoia that helps justify the regime’s harsh rule and suppress dissent.
  • Cultural Association: With its corrupt, authoritarian government, rigged voting system, and brutal treatment of the male population, Malvaria draws on the dark history of Eastern European and Russian autocracies. Its bleak landscape and oppressive governance reflect a dystopian vision of a society where power is upheld by fear, propaganda, and systemic repression.
Ferocia (Inspired by the most repressive, authoritarian states in history, with a touch of dystopian horror)
  • Resources and Wealth: Ferocia is an isolated, heavily fortified region ruled by a single, sadistic female royal family known for its cruelty and absolute disregard for life. The land itself is barren, with limited resources, and what little exists is exploited to the extreme. Ferocia’s economy is built on slave labor and relentless extraction, both from the land and its people, with no regard for sustainability or well-being. Its wealth is used solely to fund the royal family’s sadistic whims and to maintain their brutal reign.
  • Male Control and Social Structure: In Ferocia, men are treated as sub-human, viewed solely as disposable tools for the most grueling, dangerous, and dehumanizing tasks. They are kept in underground labor camps, often chained, starved, and worked until they perish. Male lives here are short and brutal, with the royal family taking pleasure in devising cruel tasks and punishments designed solely to break their spirits and bodies.
  • Female Treatment and Brutality: Ferocia’s cruelty extends even to its female population. While women outside the royal family hold marginally more status than men, they, too, live under extreme control and constant fear. They are subjected to strict surveillance, with any perceived disobedience met with public torture or execution. Female guards, known as the “Handmaidens of Ferocia,” are selected and conditioned from birth to be as cruel as the royal family, but even they are treated as expendable should they fail to meet the royal family’s standards.
  • The Royal Family and Sadistic Rule: The ruling family, known simply as “The Blooded House,” revels in terror and suffering. Their rule is upheld through extreme punishment, ritualized cruelty, and systematic degradation of all living things. The family is notorious for executing members of their own bloodline for even the slightest offenses, displaying an utter lack of empathy even for their own kin. Legends speak of daughters betraying mothers, siblings turning against each other, all under the family’s twisted belief that suffering builds strength.
  • Cultural Justification: The royal family promotes a twisted ideology that all beings—human or otherwise—are born inherently weak and corrupt, and that only through intense suffering and control can any semblance of “order” be maintained. This nihilistic worldview is drilled into the population from birth, creating a society where loyalty is driven by fear rather than respect. Even the language is designed to dehumanize, with words like “compassion” and “mercy” banned, and those caught using them facing immediate punishment.
  • Living Conditions and Infrastructure: Ferocia is known for its hauntingly bleak cities, with towering fortresses, vast prison camps, and labor factories. These structures are built not for function but to inspire dread. Streets are patrolled by brutal female guards who act without hesitation, ensuring that any sign of defiance is met with swift punishment. Public executions and punishments are common, with the royal family viewing them as essential displays of power.
  • International Isolation and Fear: Ferocia is shunned by nearly every other region in the world, its policies and leaders considered abhorrent even in societies that tolerate male subjugation. Malvaria is its only ally, and even they approach Ferocia with caution. Ferocia’s reputation as a land of despair and suffering of females is so strong that other regions impose strict sanctions.
  • Propaganda and Indoctrination: The Ferocian state relies heavily on brutal propaganda, depicting life as a constant struggle for survival where weakness is mercilessly purged. Citizens are constantly reminded that they exist solely by the mercy of the royal family, and even slight errors or expressions of individuality are punishable by torture. Men and women alike are indoctrinated to accept that they are nothing more than tools for the family’s desires, and attempts at resistance are met with overwhelming force.
  • Cultural Association: Ferocia is inspired by the darkest aspects of authoritarian and totalitarian regimes, coupled with elements of dystopian horror. Its barren landscape and brutal infrastructure evoke a sense of despair and hopelessness, making it a place of almost mythic fear in the rest of the world.

The Brutal Dynasty of FEROCIA

I am currently working on other realms within this fantasy world of Female Supremacy. Take FEROCIA, for example, a region of absolute cruelty, in which I am creating stories, some of which interact with events in Cruella. Here is a brief synopsis of this secretive realm

This region, known as Ferocia, is an isolated, ultra-cruel dictatorship ruled by a single royal family of women who have absolute control over the nation. The ruling dynasty has reigned for generations, maintaining power through a combination of terror, propaganda, and brutal enforcement by an all-female military and police force. Unlike the rest of the world, where women generally hold all the power, in Ferocia, even ordinary women suffer alongside men, living in extreme poverty and oppression. The regime’s cruelty does not discriminate—both genders are subjugated, making Ferocia an outlier in the global order.

At the top, the royal family lives in unimaginable luxury, completely disconnected from the daily horrors of life for their subjects. The royal palace, a fortress of decadence and opulence, is filled with gold, priceless art, and lavish feasts. The royal women are worshipped as near-divine beings, believed to be infallible and untouchable. They indulge in excess, enjoying the finest things while their people starve. Their whims dictate the fate of the nation, and they are known for their sadistic tendencies, with public punishments and executions common.

Their most trusted enforcers are the female military and police, an elite force trained to be ruthless, fanatically loyal, and unquestioning. They patrol the streets with brutal efficiency, crushing any dissent with violent force. These women live in absolute comfort compared to the general populace, benefiting from their loyalty to the regime, but they are always under the watchful eyes of the royal family, who will not hesitate to punish even the slightest disobedience.

The rest of the population, both men and women, live in grinding poverty. Basic necessities like food, clean water, and healthcare are scarce, and the people toil in harsh labor camps or on barren farmlands. Propaganda is everywhere, glorifying the royal family and their military might, while the people are kept in constant fear of punishment. Children are indoctrinated from birth to revere the regime and inform on their families, fostering a culture of paranoia and distrust.

Ferocia’s extreme cruelty and oppressive isolation have led to its alienation from the rest of the world. Other powerful regions sanction and shun it, condemning the nation’s treatment of its women. The international community may be brutal in its own way, but the situation in Ferocia is seen as too extreme, even by their standards. Despite this, Ferocia’s leadership maintains its grip on power, using the sanctions and isolation to fuel nationalist propaganda, framing themselves as victims of global jealousy and maintaining a chokehold on their suffering people.

This stark contrast between the indulgent life of the royal family and the abject misery of the common people defines Ferocia as a land of extremes, where cruelty is celebrated and both men and women suffer under the iron rule of a family that thrives on absolute control.
