Skouras has potential to be a masterpiece of a region. The idea of a swirling mass of warring city-states and loose alliances is just great. If a "human touch" can be added to it, it could be a real work of art...I know there are much bigger things to be focussed on, but still. Skouras is really neat. :) Is the language(s?) of that region ever going to be worked on? (what do they speak there anyway?)
<p> Two more cultures interest me greatly, the Qarau and the Mgunikpe. Why haven't these two cultures ever developed a country? Do their religions restrict them from that, or are they just primitive barbarians? I know that the Qaraus follow a monotheistic religion, but what do the Mgunikpe worship?
<hr><i>Mark responds:
<p>Thanks for the interest! There's only very basic work done on the Lenani-Littoral languages-- enough so that I know the names of the cities in three forms (ancient, Tzhuro, and modern Skourene). Like so many regions, I hope to get back to it someday.
<p>You'll see more about the Qaraus in the Atlas... IIRC, the Mgunikpe
never do much. :( They're animists, something like the Siberian natives.
