Altryae

Brief History
Altryae was first formed by Kayeda Sylkova as a southern province of VVR, until the VVR decided to leave Velerin, prompting Gardenia to rebel against them, resulting in two battles that ultimately led to the VVR's defeat. In addition to Gardenia's rebellion, Altryae also rose up against their rule, eventually gaining independence, and joining Mosir-Sumari.

As the union solidified, Altryae established itself as a self-governing province within the larger framework of Mosir. Notably, during this period, four out of six towns that were previously aligned with the VVR chose to switch sides, prompting the signing of a treaty to formalize the new arrangement. However, the towns later reverted to their allegiance with the VVR.

Subsequently, another battle took place, resulting in yet another defeat for the VVR. Following this confrontation, both Gardenia and the VVR realized the futility of their conflict and opted for a peace agreement. Meanwhile, due to external pressures, Altryae found itself compelled to sell its land back to the VVR. As a consequence, the people of Altryae relocated to smaller territories and scattered islands throughout Eldham, which lead to Altryae deciding to join Drakaes.

Religion
The state religion in Altryae is Faxemis Angelae. As its wiki describes:

Altryaen Language

Clothing Style
The Altryaean wear fine silk clothing, which they buy with the money they make from spice trading, since it helps them stay cool in the desert and also serves as a symbol of their success as merchants. It is not uncommon for a husband to spend a significant portion of his earnings on the finest silk clothing available, especially for his wedding attire.

Richer Altryaean will adorn their clothing with gold ornaments to showcase their status, and will often wear complementary items such as hats and canes.

Food
The traditional Altryaean and Lycror meals are composed of a mix of small animals, red meat, and a variety of spices. Their involvement with spice trading is so significant that many spices of different colors have been attributed qualities such as strength, love, and good luck. Each household has its own secret recipe, passed down from generation to generation, with each new generation adding a different ingredient. This has resulted in an enormous variety of traditional dishes. Some spices are more popular than others, with the most popular ones being: Paprika (Red), Turmeric (Yellow), Sumac (Deep Red), Annatto (Orange), Cinnamon (Brown), Cardamom (Green), Beetroot Powder (Purple), Matcha Powder (Green), Sichuan Peppercorns (Pink), Ground Mustard Seeds (Yellow), Pepper (Black), Garlic Powder (White), and Salt (White).
