Asterism

Asterism is a state of the Lunari Empire, founded and currently led by Luna Maris Argentea. It is located on and island to the west of Nox Aeterna, and it aspires to develop into a bustling maritime economic hub.

Architecture
The general architectural style Asterism ascribes to is a temple-like style of architecture. Constructions tend to be of primarily stone and frequently possess circular and rounded shapes in their footprints as well as domed roofs. There is a notable lack of wood in the buildings excepting flooring and furniture, and an obvious love of colorful materials.

Cuisine
In general, Asterism's cuisine primarily revolves around seafood and whatever can be grown locally, though there is much less sushi to be found than in much of the rest of the Lunari Empire and more cooked fish and shellfish. The most typical spices utilized by people are sea salt and locally grown fennel. A common snack among Asters is seaweed crackers, known as sea star crackers due to being shaped into four pointed stars, garnished with local cheeses, meat, and preserves. The crackers can be seasoned a variety of different ways, but the most common form of seasoning, colloquially known as "standard seasoning", is a mix of sea salt and fennel, either ground or whole seeds.
