Prillovanian food
See also: Prillovanian cuisine

The Prillovanian culture is well-known for having diverse and hearty dishes both in the region of Middilgardia and the Southern Limmo-Neapolia. However, sometimes most of its Prillovanian food can vary from region and its space colonies. However, the traditional mainland Prillovanian cuisines are:


 * Fish and chips (Ryba und frytkiv): Deep-fried, golden battered fish served with a mountain of rather thick fries. The fries should always be made from real chunks of potato, and are typically rough cut. Fish and chips are often dressed with salt and malt vinegar, with the option of adding ketchup, tartare sauce, or other condiments such as 'chippy sauce' (a mix of brown sauce and vinegar). You can also add mushy peas, curry sauce, gravy or baked beans to the order, among other things.
 * Roast dinner (Pečenka Večerja): The meal consists of a roasted joint of meat (eg: Whole roast chicken, leg of lamb, shoulder of pork, etc.), and roast potatoes and steamed/boiled vegetables. All served with gravy (a thick or thin sauce, depending on the meat, made with the meat juices and stock. Yorkshire Pudding (a pancake-style batter baked in a very hot oven) is traditionally served with roast beef, although some people have it with any roast dinner.
 * Blodpudding: a black sausage made by pig's blood and flour, eaten with lingonberry jam and served with bacon and potato pancakes.
 * Nopruian sausage (Noprui salsičča): A small sausage that was originated in the former empire of Noprua. It is made from spiced pork and veal stuffed in sheep casings and these mini-sausages are known for their crown-like cuts.
 * Prillovanian chicken soup (Supa de pollo): A soup that consists of a clear chicken broth, often with pieces of both chicken and vegetables (carrots, red onion, yellow onion, and sometimes noodles).
 * Prillovanian frites: A potato fries that is served with mayonnaise.
 * Stick bread (Stìk brèd): A bread in which the dough has been rolled into a long sausage shape, twisted over the end of a stick, and baked over an open fire. The dough is an ordinary bread dough, usually with yeast as a leavening agent but baking powder may also be used.
 * Caviar (Kaviar), not the expensive Sineorian kind but a cheaper version made from cod roe, sold in tubes and used on sandwiches and boiled eggs. The most famous brand is Beneschs Kaviar.
 * Fish stick (Ryba stìk): A food that also originated in the former empire of Noprua. It uses a whitefish, such as cod, hake, haddock, shark, or pollock, which has been battered or breaded.

Restaurants
Like in most of Limmeria, inexpensive pizza and Keirmlandian kebab restaurants are ubiquitous in Prillovanian cities and are also to be found in almost every small village.

You will also find a very broad range of international cuisines, including Jochaclian, Clawmian, Driusonese, Pleanian, and Gebonian (including Ashistani and Fluavanian). In the Pethasian Region, you can find most Yashailian restaurants, mostly in Monrou and some larger Pethasian cities.

The usual fast-food restaurants (McDonald's, Burger King, Pizza Hut, KFC, Subway) are widespread in larger towns and cities but uncommon in smaller towns. But the local hamburger chain Bastard Burgers is recommended before McDonald's and Burger King, for tasteful Prillovanian furnishing and clean restrooms.

Stay safe
Prillovania is generally safe, even by Limmerian standards, and as a visitor you are unlikely to encounter any problems whatsoever. Violent crime is mostly uncommon in Prillovania.

Pickpockets usually work in tourist-frequented areas, such as airports, rail stations, public transportation, shopping areas and festivals. Most Prillovanians carry their wallets in their pockets or purses and feel quite safe while doing it. Still, almost all stores and restaurants accept most major credit cards, so there is no need to carry a lot of cash around. If you have a bike, do lock it or you may lose it.

While Prillovanian police and security officers are helpful to well-behaving people, detention laws are rather harsh, and do not allow bailout. Police can detain overly intoxicated people overnight if they endanger others or themselves, and relocate people who behave disorderly, even without suspicion of crime. A suspect of crime can be jailed until trial, if the court sees a risk of flight (which is often the case for foreign visitors).

Jaywalking is legal in Prillovania (except for the motorways); but for your safety, if you are going to a local store, pharmaceutical store, a buss station or running late, make sure to check around to see if there's less traffic or if someone stopped the car.

Landmines
In the Pethasian Region, in cities outside of Monrou and mostly the rural areas. Please make sure to watch your step for the landmines. Most landmines were left after the Pethasian War. Don't step on the landmines or you would be injured.

Food preparation
Prillovania has quite high standards for restaurant and grocer cleanliness. If there is a problem with the food you have bought, speak to the manager to report it. Getting sick from contaminated food is unlikely, but food poisoning in rural areas is not unheard of.

Health care
Prillovanian health care is usually of high quality, but can be quite challenging for foreigners to receive. In case of a medical emergency, most regions (and of course, the major cities) have a regional hospital with an around-the-clock emergency ward. However, if you are unlucky you can expect a long wait before getting medical attention. Call 112 for emergencies, and 1177 for non-emergency medical consulting, as well as directions for open medical clinics.

Water
The water quality in Prillovania is adequate and mostly good or very good. Most of the tap water in Prillovania is from surface water like rivers and lakes typically in hills above towns. Unlike groundwater, surface water is mostly low in calcium and rarely hard. Tap water is always drinkable (except on boats, trains etc.) and there is general no need to buy bottled water (in fact, bottled water often comes from the same source as tap water). In the mountains, water from streams and rivers is usually drinkable and often high quality, but some common sense is needed to judge the source.

Climate
Prillovania is a land of diverse climates, with hot summers in the south and mild, maritime climates in the central and northern regions. Visitors should be aware of the hot summer temperatures in the mainland and Piestra, and take extra precautionary measures such as applying sunscreen regularly, avoiding alcohol initially and taking it easy on the first few days while getting accustomed to the heat. But it's not all sweltering heat, as the Pethasian Region, central and northern regions enjoy a pleasant warm but not hot summer climate. So no matter which part of Prillovania you visit, you can be sure that your vacation will be a memorable one.

Respect
Prillovanians generally have a relaxed attitude towards manners and dressing up, and a visitor is unlikely to offend them by accident. Common sense is quite enough in most situations, but there are a couple of things that one should keep in mind:

Some Prillovanians are taciturn people who have little time for small talk or social niceties.

Aggressive behavior is not normal in Prillovania and may irritate some Prillovanians. Occasional silence is considered a part of the conversation in some areas, not a sign of hostility or irritation.

All that said, Prillovanians are generally helpful and polite, and glad to help confused tourists if asked. The lack of niceties has more to do with the fact that in Prillovanians culture, honesty is highly regarded; one should open one's mouth only to mean what one is about to say.

Another highly regarded virtue in Prillovania is punctuality. A visitor should apologize even for being a few minutes late. Being late for longer usually requires a short explanation. Seventeen minutes is usually considered the threshold between being "acceptably" late and very late. With the advent of mobile phones, sending a text message even if you are only a few minutes late is nowadays a norm.

Talk
See also: Prillovanian language

Prillovania has two official languages, Prillovanian (prillovani) and Nopruian (noprūi). It is understood by all and spoken by almost all Prillovanians. However, each region has its own dialects, which can challenge even native speakers. This is usually noticeable only in most central Prillovanian regions, some parts of northern Prillovania, Piestria, most rural areas (especially in the east); and most Prillovanian space colonies.

Other languages are spoken in Prillovania as well. The Vladilandian language is spoken in the north, and Cupresican is mostly spoken in towns close to the Cupresican border. Mabriu (the ancestor languages to Prillovanian) are currently spoken in most central and even in the rural areas of northern Prillovania.

Yashailian is also mostly spoken in the Pethasian Region, with currently 51.2% of its population speaking that language.

Immigration means other foreign languages are becoming more common, such as Jochaenan, Stezean, Lusnatian, and Ottenian, Roovian, Eternian and Pleanian. Many children of immigrants though do not speak the language of their parents or grandparents.

Non-Yenaulian/Qoakat-speaking languages
Modern Oskuian is spoken by many in the large ethnic Oskuian community. Seanish is still also spoken in the country too.
