Its capital is Răthamrona (Ḷdamrōṇa in the native Paḷkhan language).
Its capital is Thamngethra, from the Skellan phrase ''dy arm a Ñeðra'' (Ngedhra lives).

The quintessential Palkhan musical instruments are the ''tsaltho'' (''chaḷdō'' in Palkhan), very similar to the cello, and the Palkhan drum (''feam Parca'' in Windermere; ''pātre'' in Palkhan).
==Religion==
The indigenous religion of Pategia, ''Thỉrot·ekhemleci'', is quite similar to Celtic paganism, and is followed by about 20% of Pategians today. The rest are mostly atheist or Ngeðraist.


Palkhan music is highly multi-ethnic and uses elements from both native styles and Talman ones. Native Palkhan music tends to be richly ornamented, and is based on a unique set of 25 "tones", some of which are defined as vibratos with fixed endpoints. The underlying scale, though, has only 10 tones per octave.
==Music==
 
Model: Medieval music
Some ornaments include:
*grace notes
*rapid trills and turns
*slides
*pronouncing retroflex consonants in lyrics so that the tongue slaps the floor of the mouth, producing a percussive effect
 
Songs in both Palkhan classical and pop music address a wide variety of themes.
 
Palkha has its own offshoot of Windermere music as well. Some styles that fell out of use in Talma are still commonly performed in Palkha, such as the song with intoning voice (''wălam yăthmear''). Palkha is in fact home to the composer Dăraf Ko, a leading composer of ''yăthmear'' songs today, some of which incorporate native Palkhan classical styles in addition to Windermere ones.
 
===Răthamrona school===
 
Rough timeline:
 
50 years before present: Styles very similar to minimalism and ambient music emerge in Palkha. Pieces composed by the Răthamrona school around that time can stretch for over 5 hours.
 
30 years BP: People have enough of that style and rebel, creating some of the most wildly dissonant music in Tricin (sometimes using crazy equal temperaments).
 
25 years BP: Minimalism makes a comeback in a slightly more "folksy" form (pieces are shorter etc.) The PSyT (''Prăctheng Sngoal Yătălisrił'' "Experimental Music Society") forms a branch in Palkha, led by Schaus-Schaus Flein. More fully acoustic pieces are written in the last 25 years.
 
===Palkhan minimalism===
 
Minimalist pieces from the Răthamrona school, ironically, have some of the most complex harmonic progressions in Trician music. One famous piece, ???, has over a hundred chord progressions, each modulating up by a microcomma.
 
===Palkhan postminimalism===
 
Palkhan musical compositions from the last three decades often revolve around polyrhythms.
