Culture of Tonton
Tontoni culture is rooted in democracy and cares greatly about efficiency, fully utilising the available resources. The result of these traditions is a very compact and concise building style. Another feature of Tontoni culture is the communal way of approaching resources. The people of Tonton have their resources publicly available for others to use, with both materials and living spaces. The language of Tonton is heavily related to the original inhabitants of the Tontoni Island mixed with the first Brothian settlers' language. Some Tontoni people have a strong sense of duty to preserve the history of both their culture and the culture found around them in Ryzan as a whole. Fishing is a strong part of the Tontoni Identity thanks to its geography.
