[ • ] where is retribution set?
Retribution is set in a made up country so that you, the roleplayer, can be as inspired with your character as possible. While we have a rough outline available of the size and location of Verona, we want to avoid limitations where possible and felt that basing ourselves in an existing country would limit creativity in terms of backgrounds, occupations, morals, etc.

We can confirm is that the roleplaying itself takes place in said country's capital city: Verona. Verona is where the play 'Romeo and Juliet' is based, and is a real life historical city in northern italy.
[ • ] because verona is both a city and a country, how do i visualise this on a world?
good question!
and that answer to that is by clicking this hyperlinked map here. Now, this is a pretty crude drawing(it's literally a screenshot and me drawing random lines) however hopefully it can give you a rough idea on the country, it's geographical patterns and major cities.

Certain areas of the city are distinctly Asian due to a large migration event from various Asian countries such as Korea, China, Japan, Thailand, etc.
However the city has entered the 21st century like the rest of the world. a sizeable portion of verona is dedicated to modern architecture such as apartment buildings, skyscrapers, etc., to enable roleplayers their choice of setting.
if you'd like to immerse your character in a city with nearly 1700 years of history, then you can! if you'd prefer to look towards the future and progress, you can do so as well!
The city itself is roughly the same size as Rome(1,285 km²).
