Cintis
Cintis is a fairly young nation that got his independence during the fall of the Adralen Empire. Their government is made up if semi autonomous communities, each lead by a leader called an Ataman that gather into a collective government only in times of crisis or to decide on important decisions once a year.
Due to their history of subjugation under the rule of the Adralen Wizards, Cintien distrust Magic users and using magic is generally only allowed if the Ataman permitted it. If anything unfortunate happens with magic user close blame is quickly cast onto this individual and can even be hunted by the population.
Cintis population is made up mostly of humans with a dwarven, halfling and gnome minority, these however are more common in the mountain towns and not as much in the vast steppes.
The country has a long history in horse breeding and even griffon breeding and taming, and are considered unmatched in their skill on mounted combat, especially archery. A horse based combatants are called Uhlans and their flying, griffon riding counterparts Jezdiec. Jezdiec have a high standing amongst their peers, since its very demanding to tame a griffon. Atamans are normally chosen from accomplished Jezdiecs.
