Orman

Elves of the jungles on Akel-Gra.
Known for their stone structures, the Orman Empire once ruled the Canjil Jungle. Currently they have been whittled down to spread out chiefdoms. Their society is tribal and heavily influenced by druidism.
The Orman waged war against horrors from the deep Far, things so old even the long lived races didn't understand them. these abominations corrupted the Shark-men of the Qi-lin Ocean, who, in turn, organized the surrounding island nations (some by domination) against the Orman. These allied forces from the north divided the strong Orman empire into thier currently seperated city states.
