Line 26:
** The Acztaoc Empire is a melange of [[Mayincatec]] influences, though primarily Aztec in inspiration.
** The Merchant Republic of Zendar is blatantly Venice with a dash of Age of Exploration-era Portugal.
** The Agonic Order is are very much based on [[The Teutonic Knights]], their Germanic most influence evident in theirits knights' armor, ranks and names.
** The Turguhn Horde are an amalgam of various periods of the Mongol khanates, even compared to the already-Mongol inspired Khergits.
** The Papal State, like its real life inspiration, is the center of the Catholic faith in Calradia, complete with a Pope and being based in the former heart of an empire.
** The Mithradian Empire is essentially the [[Byzantine Empire]], though it still follows Roman-era Mithraism.
** The mod also highlights the [[Ancient Grome]] inspirations of the long-fallen Calradian Empire. As it's possible to recreate it however, retaining its blatantly Roman elements with some Renaissance touches.
* [[Fantasy Gun Control]]: Averted, especially over time. Guns and ammo are initially hard to come by. But eventually, muskets and pistol start contesting bows and crossbows on the battlefield.
* [[Fashions Never Change]]: Averted. Over the course of the game, fashions and armor visibly change to reflect the times.
* [[Game Mod]]: A rather extensive one for ''Warband''.
* [[Intrepid Merchant]]: The ones who rebuilt Zendar. Also you potentially, if you're wealthy and influential enough to deal with the various guilds.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: [[Altum Videtur|The title is Latin]] for "New Era."
* [[Medieval European Fantasy]]: Subverted and ultimately averted as time passes.
Line 41 ⟶ 43:
* [[Take a Third Option]]: With the introduction of republics like Zendar, you could establish one yourself, though some of your companions may not be happy with having no noble titles.
* [[Time Skip]]: The mod starts off over a hundred years after the "vanilla" game.
* [[Vestigial Empire]]:
** The Khergit Khanate has seen better days, but still remains a major adversary when pushed.
** The island-based Mithradian Empire apparently sees itself as a direct remnant of the fallen Calradian Empire.
