I'm a bit confused by the descriptions of Andoran. The city of Oregent for example is described as being entirely owned (incl. housing) by large corporations and banks and dominated by a large industrial area full of factories belching black smoke.
A huge lumber consortium also seems to control most of the north with large industrial-style clear-felling logging camps.
The costumes seem mostly C19th in the illustrations, except for the steel armor of course since they don't have guns.
So should the country be imagined as a coal-powered, early C19th sort of industrial society but without the guns? Or as something else? The degree of modernity is not really clear.
