 ===== Overview ===== ===== Overview =====
-Splint is the newest "country" of Cahyali. With a landscape ranging from lush rainforest to arid desert and breezy islands, this area has changed hands many different times over its long history. First ruled over by the Tonameyoti Atlaca (Tonatiu) people, then by Imperial Dahabu, then by the fallen Zinaparo Kingdom, then by Ley'Ork, Splint struggles to find itself an identity in the mishmosh of influences vying for dominance in the region. Splint has no government, but its people are beginning to find a shared cultural identity - for now, this is mostly centered around resistance against Ley'Orkian occupation, but through the efforts of certain groups and the rebels' steady pushback, it is growing into more. Certainly, Splint has a bright future ahead of it... if it manages to unite.+Splint is the newest "country" of Cahyali.

 A vast jungle with a myriad of species and peoples within. Sure you can find your normal creatures like monkeys, exotic birds, and plenty of insects, but in the hidden reaches of the trees the fabled alebrijes dwell, a true sight to behold with their numerous appearances and colors, no two alebrijes are the same. La Sepultura is also the home of the local butterfly population during the colder months, migrating to Los Circulos during the warmer months. A vast jungle with a myriad of species and peoples within.
