Dasulanoi (culture)

An ancient polis culture of Kalathipsomi origin, the Dasulanoi have long been known for their historically vast commercial networks that span the Shattered Isles. Forming a network of autonomous, oligarchic city-states, the Dasulanoi were integrated into the Aversarian polity both diplomatically and militarily in the age of piracy, earning many collaborative families privileged status within the Aautokrata.

Time however has seen the Aversarian ideals of supremacy take heart in the Dasulanoi, tempering maritime ambition with pride and power through purity. Intra-family warfare over long-standing commercial feuds has since seen prosperity traded for a cycle of vengeance, leading to faultlines over religion, political division and even popular uprisings led by ambitious minor families, conflicts often devastating in their totality.
