Palkha (BARK-uh; Skellan: Barca /ˈpaɾkʰə/, Barcan: Paḷkha /paɭkʰa/, Roshterian: Qaanuuṯu) is a predominantly Rhythoed-speaking Eta-Talman country. It is located near Verse:Tricin/Qaaroshter.

Geography

Its capital is Răthamrona (Ḷdamrōṇa in the native Paḷkhan language).

Wildlife

Barca has distinct wildlife though not as distinct as Cualuav.

Music

The quintessential Palkhan musical instruments are the tsaltho (chaḷdō in Palkhan), very similar to the cello, and the păgoth (pātre), a drum.

Palkhan music is based on a fusion of native styles and Lakovic ones. Native Palkhan music tends to be richly ornamented, and is based on a unique scale consisting of 25 "tones", some of which are defined as vibratos with fixed endpoints.
