History and Relations
Monar was a part of the confederation of Vaman Kingdoms that came together around 400AL, and this alliance outlawed Akanism and started the secular governmental system Vaman uses today, but by around 650AL the alliance broke apart as the kings began to fight with one another for more power. Monar broke away around 700AL. The main ethnic group in Monar is Vaman with some old blood from Into. They are tense with Scarcun and Toussin, have conflict with Vyrtdan and Cendar, and are friendly with Awavan. They mainly export timber, glass, and Vaman Purple pigment.
Military and Art
The most distinct military unit in Monar is the vurmir, an elite heavily armoured warrior with tactical training, raised to endure pain and frighten their foes with unstoppable aggression. They are also trained to go undercover and hunt down Akanists in the kingdom, acting as inquisitors. Architectural features in Monar include crowned battlements, aqueducts, and spire towers, and common artforms include music, masonry, and glassblowing.
