The north, due to its long history of conflict and civil strife, is characterised by a highly militant culture.  Even peasant children are raised to fight, and accruing merit in battle is seen as the highest honour.  Tevrén has produced many of the continents best warriors and fighters.  Martial prowess is preferred to the arcane arts, although clerics and paladins are also valued for their contributions to the war effort.  The primary religious practice of the north is ancestor worship, including the worship of deified kings.  The original ''murráficos'' are viewed as saints, and every child is expected to know the names of the original ''murráficos'' by heart.  However, other religions, such as the Church of the Great Maker, are accepted in the north, and in some cases have even thrived.
