Medua

The meduans are a string tribal race, ruled by the strongest tribe. They have a rich culture and history based on their history and inter tribal struggles.

History

_______________________________________________________________________________________

The history is primarily based around the religion. They believe they were the first race alive. They have in fact been in the desert since before the elves came out of the forest and the dwarves came from the earth. The first recorded history of the Meduans was during the reign of Kabon. Kabon was believed to be a divine leader, a child of Marask and Bedua. He raged war against the invading forces, (believed to be of the long dead race of Edaron, a raiding race in the mezzo mare.) and drove them off the coast. The primary battle of this was the battle of Temujmara. Kabon died in this battle after a great expenditure of power.

The study of history continued form this point. They originally wrote in pictograms of various sorts, but they eventually changed to a phonetic alphabet (roughly 300 years ago). At the time after Kabon's death, each tribe had its own set of pictograms. The study of History became a select task, only available to the scholars who had learned several alphabets. Most of the history was stored in clay tablets.

It was several dynasties later when the war of the sands happened. The meduan civilisation had been effectively split into two countries, the north western alliance of the The Bedun and the Kharish, the two more mercantile and tolerant tribes, and the southern alliance of the Ubu'was and the Marask. These two sub nations were waring constantly. The rich culture of the meduans was forgotten and the sounds of war were ringing day an night. Eventually another party came into power, a series of warriors managed to take control of both parties. This group was known as the Temuj, they effectively took control of the two alliances. Once in control they formed the national boundries of today's nation. However tthe Temuj were very extremist. Eventually the true goals of the group were lost and they began to hunt down the ancient tablets and artifacts. This loss of material destroyed much of the study of history.

Finally in the last 10 years, the Meduans formed a trade agreement with the Lantinian league.
