They are steadfast, but not stubborn. Temperance is considered a cornerstone of Lundan society, and it has served them well for many centuries. Lunda has a strong paladin tradition, and even those who are not paladins tend to hold to the tenets of the oath. </p> <p> Lundan engages in prolific trade with other nations. Their largest partners are the nearby Malteca and Deshermet, but their trade extends all across the roll, going as far north as Zheng through the straits of the Ohm Basin, and around the tip of the continent to engage in trade with the western nations. Some brave voyagers are even said to have made it all the way to Morozemlya and back. </p> </div> <h4>Government</h4> <div class="level4"> <p> The Prince of Lunda is elected by popular vote of Lundan landowners. The prince is considered the steward of the country, leading its armies and managing its expansive trade networks. They have a sizeable navy, which escorts convoys through rougher patches of water. </p> </div> <h4>Inhabitants</h4> <div class="level4"> <p> Lundans are outgoing and friendly, doing their best to establish positive relations with as many nations as possible to foster relations and trade. Lundans have extremely dark skin, with some being as black as obsidian, and their hair is dark and coarse. In their homeland, they usually wear light, loose clothing to combat the heat of the sun, though on voyages they will bring clothing suited to the climates of their destinations. </p> </div> <h3 class="page-header pb-3 mb-4 mt-0">Geography</h3> <div class="level3"> </div> <h4>Climate</h4> <div class="level4"> <p> Despite its proximity to the coast, Lunda is hot and dry, receiving just enough rain to support agriculture. It tends to stay the same temperature year-round, meaning every season is growing season. </p> </div> <h4>Ecology</h4> <div class="level4"> <p> Much of the nation is a semi-desert plain, with some grassland to the South. To the West, the terrain transitions into thick woodland near the border with Ngonda. </p> </div> <h4>Landscape</h4> <div class="level4"> <p> Lunda gradually slopes upward as one heads West. </p> <p> </pane><pane id="tab-history"> </p> </div> <h2 class="page-header pb-3 mb-4 mt-0">History</h2> <div class="level2"> <p> </pane> <pane id="tab-religion"> </p> </div> <h2 class="page-header pb-3 mb-4 mt-0">Religion</h2> <div class="level2"> </div> <h3 class="page-header pb-3 mb-4 mt-0">Deities and Philosophies</h3> <div class="level3"> <span class='np_break'> </span> <div class="table-responsive"><table class="inline table table-striped table-condensed"> <thead> <tr class="row0"> <th class="col0">Deity</th><th class="col1">Portfolio</th><th class="col2">Alignment</th><th class="col3">Alignment (allowed)</th><th class="col4">PHB Domains</th><th class="col5">Other Domains</th><th class="col6">Symbol</th><th class="col7">Favored Weapon</th> </tr> </thead> <tr class="row1"> <td class="col0">Amanchye</td><td class="col1">Goddess of Law</td><td class="col2">LG</td><td class="col3">LG, NG, LN</td><td class="col4">Good, Protection, Strength, War</td><td class="col5"> </td><td class="col6">Decorative Shield</td><td class="col7">Spear</td> </tr> <tr class="row2"> <td class="col0">Amazu</td><td class="col1">God of Erasure</td><td class="col2">LE</td><td class="col3">Any Evil, Lawful Neutral</td><td class="col4">Death, Destruction, Evil, Magic</td><td class="col5"> </td><td class="col6"> </td><td class="col7">Quarterstaff</td> </tr> <tr class="row3"> <td class="col0">Ikenna Emeka</td><td class="col1">God of the Earth</td><td class="col2">N</td><td class="col3">Any</td><td class="col4">Animal, Earth, Plant</td><td class="col5"> </td><td class="col6"> </td><td class="col7">Longbow</td> </tr> <tr class="row4"> <td class="col0">Ndulu Uchee</td><td class="col1">God of the Community</td><td class="col2">N</td><td class="col3">Any</td><td class="col4">Community</td><td class="col5">Nobility, Oracle</td><td class="col6"> </td><td class="col7">Greatsword</td> </tr> <tr class="row5"> <td class="col0">Chikere</td><td class="col1">Goddess of Trickery</td><td class="col2">CE</td><td class="col3">Any Non-Lawful</td><td class="col4">Chaos, Trickery, War</td><td class="col5"> </td><td class="col6"> </td><td class="col7">Longsword</td> </tr> <tr class="row6"> <td class="col0">Oku</td><td class="col1">God of the Sun</td><td class="col2">CG</td><td class="col3">Any Non-Evil</td><td class="col4">Charm, Fire, Sun</td><td class="col5"> </td><td class="col6"> </td><td class="col7">Morningstar</td> </tr> <tr class="row7"> <td class="col0">Uchena Okko</td><td class="col1">Goddess of Magic</td><td class="col2">N</td><td class="col3">Any Non-Evil</td><td class="col4">Luck, Magic, Plant</td><td class="col5"> </td><td class="col6"> </td><td class="col7"> </td> </tr> </table> <span class='np_break'> </span> </div> </div> <h4>Amazu</h4> <div class="level4"> <p> Head of the Ngdonan-Lundan Pantheon, primarily worshipped in Ngonda.
