OVERVIEW
This protocol is depicting Beluzia as the last part of the so-called "Celdic Wall" of Celtic nations in Artania. In Beluzia's case, it is a Manx-inspired nation with some Latin spice added in, as a result of historic Selucian colonisation and the blend with local communities.
ETHNICITIES
Despite the long-lasting Luthorian colonisation and dominance in Beluzia, it wasn't enough to sweep away indigenous to the land Layellan (Manx) people, who have lived here for centuries, if not millenias. Layellans are the predominant ethnic group in Beluzia, yet Selucian (Latin) minorities still make up a significant amount of the population. Bailonans (Galician), as the name suggests come and live on the nation's Bailon Islands, where the ancestors of Selucian imperials colonisators escaped to survive the collapse of the colonial administration and Luthorian trials. The groups have blended in with the locals, forming a unique ethnic and linguistic group of both Selucian and Celdic nature. The presence of Luthorians and Darnussians as the nations neighbouring Beluzia, especially the former, can be traced back to their history of colonisers, merchants or others, who have visited once and never left afterwards.
» 79% Layellan (Manx)
» 9% Bailonans (Galician)
» 6% Luthorian (English)
» 2% Darnussian (German)
» 4% Other
LANGUAGES
Despite the Constitution of Beluzia describing Layellan (Manx) as the "national language", the Luthorian (English) language remains used by the majority of the nation, except for the Bailon Islands which speaks both Layellan and Bailonan (Galician) and the rural coastal areas of Beluzia, or lands damaged less by the Luthorian colonisation. Addtionally, closely to the northern and eastern borders of Beluzia it is possible to hear Fìor-Caldorian (Scottish), Darnusian (German) or Narik (Dutch) languages in the local households.
RELIGION
Beluzia, just like it's neighbours and culturally close nations is predominantly Hosian (Christian) nation, following a Luthoran (Protestant) branch of the Hosianism, influenced by the Luthorian missionaires. Aurorianists (Catholics) and non-religious citizens also make up a big chunk of the population, meanwhile a smaller group of Beluzians have stated that they follow Matthiasism (Baptism), a small [font=sans-serif]denomination within the Luthoran branch of the Church.

» 68% Hosianism (Christianity)
→ 43% Luthoranism (Protestant)
→ 21% Aurorian Patriarchal Church (Roman Catholic Church)

NAMING
The majority of characters in Beluzia should have either Manx names, Galician names, Luthorian names or a combination of two of your choice. A smaller amount of characters could maintain names of the neighbouring nations, or other nations, as long as you can explain as to why that is possible.
