Incidu is a tribal confederation. It is ruled by a zhadas chieftain who acts as both a king and a warlord and has other warlords beneath him, with Sunkhu shamans to advise their rule and keep everyone in touch with their ancestors. Sunkhu shamanism emphasises that everyone must atone for the wrongdoings of their ancestors by bringing honour and glory to their clans and keeping bad spirits at bay. Inciduu are known for placing additional emphasis on one's ancestry, boasting where possible about past achievements of one's family. Their capital is Osmangiyq.
Incidu's south meets the Durdundus Mountains, where Mount Nyumyduzha overlooks the lands. The Blood Mountains lie to the southeast, and between these two ranges is the Blood Valley from whence the Nunyciu River flows. The Minas flows from the Blood Mountains too, and the Raqni flows from the Durdundus Mountains. In the northwest, the Amber River flow through the Amber Flatlands, surrounded by arid desert and arid shrubland. Lake Mancisa makes up the north and middle areas of Incidu, and it has some temperate forest on its southern shores. The rest of Incidu is dry grassland or montane forest on the mountains. The Adenen River is its northern border with Brrutt.
