Culture and Locations
Mvecho is an island kingdom in the Karber Sea. They are ruled by a tzoil king, who justifies their validity and authority through the Ma Tu religion, which teaches that the people should be utterly obedient toward whoever is ruling. They believe in a free market, as they act as a sea trade hub between Benevis, Tuaram, and Qarbak. They also cooperate with the East Tuaram Company. Their capital is Beda Sha.
Mvecho is mostly savanna with some tropical rainforest along its eastern shore and semiarid desert along the western shore. The Homeho River flows through Beda Sha, and the Tvtk Sea lies to the north of the island. To the west is the Karber Sea. Lorar Island is found to the north, near Haramys.
