HISTORY
|
|
::Bioculture:: |
The racial mixture of the country is between Dravidians and
Khmer. There is an Aryan strain that entered the population in the
early years ABC when their armies came out of the north and into India,
only to be defeated and enslaved by the Dravidian snake priests.
|
::Totem:: |
Indians made their Covenant with the viper and the cobra.
|
::Religion:: |
Vedic Animism has become the dominant religion of the
Codominion in the last century. The Vedic cults are the original
religion of India and have gone through countless incarnations as
clerical, monastic, monotheistic, and polytheistic traditions. The
animist influence comes from the Khmer of the east.
|
::Government:: |
The co-rulers are taken from the highest caste families.
India has 2 capitals: one at Delhi and one at Angkor Wat. Civil war
between the government and a loose coalition of shaman-led Karen and Meo
tribes often plagues the country.
|
::Gender:: |
India practices gender equality.
|
::Guilds:: |
Most of the guilds are run by Khmer. Each guild is a large
self-contained bio-farm where various resins, enzymes, drugs, and other
biological substances are produced.
|
::Military:: |
The military is controlled mostly by Khmer generals.
|
::Shashi:: |
Shashi are cared for as valuable contributors to society.
However, they are distrusted and kept under close supervision, even
though they do enjoy citizenship and a limited version of the
concommitant rights. Shashi are trained as Calxs to be given
predictive and extremely difficult computational tasks.
|
::Geography:: | The Codominion encompasses the entire sub-continent, extending to the Himalayas in the north. It also includes the tropical jungles of southeastern Subasia, running all the way to the eastern shores of the Pacific and throughout the southern peninsulas. |
