'A lot of people ask about the spark that started this small nation, a lot say that Khorus himself went down into Auris and gave us life as the lifeless pieces of scrap we were,but the scientists say otherwise,our origin was from a magic stone… and a boat… the boat that brung us to this island… the boat that gave us the energy to begin it… the boat that gave us shelter for the first days of our life as a tribe… then we grew up, we started growing bigger,stronger and much more intelligent, then we noticed, we no longer were a tribe, we were millions MILLIONS in just the span of multiple centuries… we were now a faction… and WE SHALL PREVAIL!!”' -Bravo Eagle

Etymology
History of nation name

The standard way to refer to a citizen of nation is as a "demonym".

Biology
At first sight, the average Aalrick looks to be composed of a metallic material. Despite its appearance, if touched there is a noticeable organic feel to their flesh. Underneath their metallic skin, their internal organs look to be of the same metallic-organic combo, but not everywhere. If one were to view their vascular system under a microscope it's obvious that their blood is thick black motor oil, their nervous system a series of cables similar to that of an electrical system, and under the soft skin they have armored plates that have varying thickness's unique to each person. The color, size, and capabilities of each member of the species depend heavily on their "purpose". Some of them being large and standing up to 8 meters high, and some of them being small, thin, and black winged without any eyes at all, although they still retain sight. Their paint schemes vary for each member of the species, but the most common ones have schemes that resemble patterns relating to common air force paint schemes. While they may seem like paint on the exterior, this paint is actually part of their skin and is subject to change as they age. There is an uncountable amount of variety in the modifications these people can have, most of them based off of actual planes. The most interesting organ they posses is their "engine" which runs off of conventional fuels. This engine part specifically on each person seems to be mostly mechanical and made of metals in comparison to the other parts of their body. This 'organ' has the purse to generate propulsion and allows them to fly using a combination of wings and engines. The amount of engines on one person can vary, although there are usually multiple. In all, these anthropomorphic planes seem rather odd, but are mostly harmless, acting in manors that mimic real life aircraft.

Culture
The Naardal's culture can be summarized with two words: The Sky. The Naardal are obsessed with the sky and anything that resides within it. Worshiping anything that commonly resides there like birds, clouds, and even other planes. As long as it spends most or all of its time in the sky its sacred to them. They like to build replications of what they find in the sky by using the very earth to create statues and figurines of what is up there, and even adorn wings on top of their normal ones to show their appreciation of the sky. They believe in an unnamed sky god that is responsible for all things that go upward beyond the ground and commonly worship and act upon what they believe what this sky god wants.

Infrastructure
Their population focuses on residing in large towers and contrary to popular belief, stairs are not their bane. The citizens they require a lot more vertical and horizontal space than a normal human being, and depending on the species the home are as big as a hangar or as small as a normal apartment, although most don't have trouble living in the out doors due to their metal bodies. The plane species revolves their logistics around the distribution and access to oil, since this is what they consume. They also prioritize their healthcare (sometimes referred to as maintenance.) and about the healthcare and others outside of their country. The plane people require a lot different care then a normal human being. Instead of medics, they have mechanics and electricians. The nation prioritizes that each individual is treated quickly, and luckily treatment usually involves repairs similar to a vehicle. While they are technically vehicles themselves, they see the need for normal infrastructure like trains, trucks and planes; which are operated by the smaller varieties of plane people.
