And here comes Shadon in the South and surpasses the glory of Godon. Since the 12th century these folks have built the strongest state of the Seventh Era on the whole Ynev which solely based on Human culture. Life is feudal here and with their monotheist religion this place resembles the most to Medieval Europe. Already talked about their god Domvik and mentioned he's another chunk from the One. He has seven faces, which can be considered as angels and are worshiped individually but all of them are just Domvik in different roles. His religion is somewhat New Testament Christian like in it's stance toward humanity. He's a protective god who cares about the weak and those in need, his morality is based on duty, he's patriarchal, authoritarian and not forgiving toward alien cults. Domvikans persecute those religions which demands human sacrifices (their main enemies are the Ranagolites), and cut down or send to the stakes all their followers without pity. This zealous behaviour led an apostate Domvikan cleric with adventurer soul to turn to Ranagol. In short time he gained many followers who probably weren't converted by him but already existed and practiced their faith in secrecy. As their prophet he led them north to the ports of the Galliomare where they stole every ship and boat they could find and crossed the sea. This prophet, called Amanovik turned to Shackallor for help who sent whole clans of headhunters to help the fight against the pursuers. They also made alliances with the tribes on the peninsula then gained an unlikely victory over the forces of Shadon. Then Amanovik named their new home Gorvik. This was in 1445 AP, their chronology starts from this date. This is a kinda chaotic feudal theocracy which fell apart to a confederacy, she has same knightly culture the Old Home has, same religious zeal, however their temperament is much more hot blooded, emotional and dramatic. Also frequent human sacrifices to Ranagol. The two countries' (Shadon and Gorvik) best European parallel would be an amalgamation of Spain, Portugal and Italy. Gorvik's geographical properties are similar to Mexico's while Shadon has many types of climate.
