Tana Toradja
Tana Toradja is a landlocked country with a grassland terrain and a temperate climate. The capital city is Makale, located in the central region of the country.
Tana Toradja is home to the Toraja people, a proud and ancient ethnic group that has a unique culture and religion. The Toraja are known for their elaborate funeral rites, which involve preserving and honoring the corpses of their ancestors in cliff-side tombs or wooden houses. The Toraja also practice a form of animism, believing that everything in nature has a soul or spirit.
Tana Toradja was once an independent kingdom that resisted the invasion of the Empire of Rodinia for centuries. The Toraja fought bravely against the imperial forces, using their knowledge of the terrain and their guerrilla tactics. However, they were eventually overwhelmed by the superior numbers and technology of the empire, and were forced to surrender. Since then, Tana Toradja has been a vassal state of the empire, paying tribute and providing soldiers for the imperial army.
Tana Toradja faces many threats and challenges from its neighbors. To the south, the horselords of Nagastan are a fierce and nomadic people who raid and plunder the Toraja lands. They are skilled riders and archers, and are said to worship a horse god. To the east, the evil realm of Marlek is ruled by a Lich King, a powerful undead sorcerer who commands an army of zombies, skeletons, and other dark creatures. The Lich King seeks to expand his domain and spread his curse to all living beings. To the west, the Empire of Rodinia is a tyrannical and oppressive regime that exploits and oppresses the Toraja people. The empire is led by a ruthless emperor who claims to be a descendant of the gods.
Tana Toradja has a few allies and friends in the region. The most notable one is the Republic of Athena, a democratic and prosperous country that shares a common history and culture with the Toraja. Athena secretly supports the Toraja’s struggle for freedom and independence, and provides them with aid and weapons. Another unexpected ally is the Kingdom of Nubia, a desert country that lies to the far west of Tana Toradja. Nubia was once a rich and ancient civilization that has a long-standing trade and friendship with the Toraja.
