Historical figures

  • Quēhtłoyoz - Naquian grammarian
  • Huichaltzah - Naquian explorer, conlanger and playwright
  • Wañjeyi - Sjowaazheñ poet
  • Mauaz nah Païxa - Tzaloxian explorer

Religion

Naquian

Early polytheism turns into sci-fi - but then what?

Sjowaazheñ

Sjowaazheñ religion is Basically Buddhism but more proselytizing. Bjeheondians apply the concept of karma and reincarnation to the world collectively in addition to individual humans. That's how the world itself began and ended many times; if humanity collectively behaves badly enough, an apocalypse will come due to the accrued karmic debt and a new universe will arise from the ashes. [I'm not going to use exactly these terms - it's not exactly a "relex" of Buddhism.]

Places

  • Tuipa-Faäni/Uānithazza - capital of Naquian Empire
