Atkitsaw

The Union of Sovereign Communes of Atkitsaw are a independent commune located in the Empire of Uldarash. It is a commune, and is run by a central committee and a president (set to change). It is located on a mountaintop, west of Aurora. The people there see themselves, not as Uldarashi, but as Atkitians, as they were sovereign for years before the Empire even formed.

Generally, Atkitians are an independent, free-willed people, with connections to the people of Serrona in Eldham, specifically the Lo'Oix. They have developed a tolerance towards colder weathers, whilst giving up their ability to withstand heat above the average temperatures of summer.

History
The history of the Atkitian people is relatively unknown, clouded by time. What remains is small snippets of journal entries by many different people who lived in as far-flung places as Plagos in Rathnir, Katsura in Eldham, and Serrona in Eldham. It is assumed that they originated in Serrona, as Lo'Oix.

Then, skipping ahead about 4,000 years, it is assumed that Atkitians migrated away from Serrona, following a series of unknown events that caused the 2 groups to fall out. They arrived in Katsura around 2,000 years ago, presumably residing in the icy mountains of South Katsura. As logically, the Atkitians would have had to pass through Onthukan, they could even be the theorised connective tissue between the Lo'Oix and Lemurfolk.

Then, they continued moving west, eventually landing in Plagos about 1,500 years ago. There, they settled in Plagos' south peninsula. However, for nearly 1,200 years, the trail goes cold, as it is unknown how the Atkitians managed to get from Plagos, on the opposite side of Rathnir, to Haven.

However, when the trail picks back up, we find the Atkitians interacting with the Kingdoms of Talawa, before Uldarash colonised the continent, and the Atkitians integrated into the rising power as a collection of towns. It is unknown whether or not modern-day socialist Atkitsaw was connected to modern-day United Socialist States of Eldham, but the time gap between both are far too long for historians to make a proper decision.

Some historians theorise that Atkitsaw's socialist influences instead came from the United Burgamerian Socialist Republic, as the timeline matches up between the period of socialism about 900 years ago in Sparwood, they could have carried the torch of socialism from Sparwood all the way to the continent of Haven.

Atkitians speak a highly-modified variant of Lo'Oi, called Atkitani. The language is less integrated with Traveler's Tongue than Lo'Oi, as on most continents Atkitians were recorded visiting did not have a strong Traveler's Tongue speaking community.
