Women and children are treated like dirt until they prove themselves in one-on-one combat with a MAN.

They look a bit OTL Turkic with a mix of OTL Chinese, though they are unnaturally tall because of the unnatural proliferation of the XYY syndrome in their society. The Ikken are highly religious because they have survived all kinds of natural disasters and thank the Ikenplain for their survival.

Nation Name: Aj Pazkada
Cities: Kada-Paz
Leader: Mankaj Ajjaarul Mar Kanvel/das
Culture: Ethnic makeup is muddled; but somewhat similar to the Paleosiberians with later Elamo-Dravidian admixtures. The religion is very complicated: it could be briefly described as ancestor worship growing into polytheism (deification of great heroes, including the tribal forefather Mangidkaj), but also contains astrological elements (worship of the sun, the moon and the stars) and a stronger-than-average feeling of ethnic exclusiveness.
Government: Monarchy (with limited powers)

Education: None
Technology: Stone Age
Wonders:
Description: Somewhat pale, black-haired, dark-eyed, relatively short people (who call themselves the Pinar Mangidkaj, or just the Pinkajar). Migrated into the area a century or two ago; according to the legends, they wandered for centuries previously, led by the various quarreling descendants of Mangidkaj, until the founder of the present ruling dynastical branch, Mankaj Kanvel, reunited them and led them to where they live now. The main and largest settlement of the Pinkajar is named Kada-Paz, the Final City, for it stands at the end of the world; this city gives the land its name. Through sheer numbers and refinedly-brutal tactics, the Pinkajar had conquered a sizable area around them, slaughtering or expelling most natives though some were allowed to live on in submission as inferior partners in the tribal confederacy.

Having undergone a series of different rulers as various tribes and cultures jostled each other about. The only common thread linking the various kingdoms and empires together is the Imperial legacy and beurocratic system in place.

No one is quite sure which one culture is the original, as the Cerenese don't have a strong tradition of recording non-economic matters.
