Setting

Thousands of years after the nuclear fallout, civilization restarted and returned to the age of cold weapons (swords, spears, horses etc.) This is why a lot is derived from european renaissance esque & modernish style architecture, clothing etc.
The Xi Chuan continent is based on the North American continent. For example, Lin Feng and Lin are located on the west coast. Zi Chuan is located right of Lin Feng and Lin and left of the Rocky mountains, and Yuan Dong is located right of the rocky mountains, which seperates Zi Chuan from the Demon Kingdom. On the east coast lies the Eastern Wilderness, which is unhabitable for humans, since it was the most affected by the nuclear fallout, but home to many mutated creatures.

Zi Chuan is a military government, with the Zi Chuan family at the head. Being a military government means that every official has a military rank.
