Zangaria
Zangaria is a nation in the southwestern part of Delia. It's known as the "Land of Fire" due to the many volcanoes found there. Zangaria is ruled by King Kalak who rules over his subjects with an iron fist. The capital city is called Kandersteg. The people here speak a dialect of the Alsharian language called "Kanderstgian". Their clothes are similar to those worn by the people of Alshar but they have their own unique style.
Zangarians are very proud and self-centered. They believe themselves to be superior to everyone else. They also have a tendency to take offense easily. They are not particularly friendly towards foreigners.
Their clothing consists mostly of loose fitting robes made from animal hides. These robes can be dyed any color desired. A typical outfit would consist of a long white robe that reaches down to the ankles. On top of this robe, a man will wear a sleeveless vest made out of leather. Women wear a dress that covers most of their body except for their face, hands, and feet. They also wear a headdress that resembles a crown.
Zangarians eat a lot of meat. They especially love mutton and beef. They also enjoy fish and other seafood. Vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, onions, garlic, and cabbage are also popular. They drink wine and beer.
Zangarians are an extremely superstitious people. They don't like to talk about death and avoid it whenever possible. If they do die, they prefer to be buried rather than cremated.
They believe that the spirits of the dead return to earth once every year during the Night of Souls. During this time, the living gather around the graves of their loved ones and pray for their souls.

Zangarians practice a form of magic known as "Shamanism". Shamanism is based on the belief that the world was created by the gods. Shamans use chants, dances, rituals, and charms to communicate with these gods, particularly the god of fire.
