Kingdom of Lustria | 'The Eternal Kingdom of the Lizard Gods'
WIP for turn
 * Government: Centralised tribal monarchy
 * Great Chief / Mortal Bearer of the Lizard Gods:
 * K'oroka ([F], b. 1199-1246, r. 1222-1246)
 * Moszar ([M], b. 1214, r. 1246-1258)
 * Urchannk ([M], b. 1230-1284, r. 1258-1284)
 * Azarkel ([F], b. 1255-1303, r. 1284-1303)
 * Oroku ([F], b. 1280, r. 1303-)
 * Urgoka ([F], b. 1302, heir)
 * Dynasty: Urchannkian (est. 1275)
 * Capital: Amekrog
 * Economy: For the former half of the 14th century, the Lustrian Kingdom has a stable economy that is continuing to thrive. Agriculture, trading and crafting (which has a larger percentage now) make up the components of the kingdom's own economy. This is especially true with the Amazon river system that allows rafts and trading canoes to be sent to the Tupi kingdoms and be sent back with other resources through bartering.
 * Demographics:
 * Population: 20 800
 * Amekrog: 1 200
 * Osbme: 260
 * Koos'en: 150
 * Eztekol: 130
 * Sal'tcet: 90
 * Os'kel: 40
 * Gkor: 20
 * Oppoks'ren: 50
 * Yok: 40
 * Mur'lok: 110
 * Rest is just rural or other villages
 * Religion: 98% Lustrian folk religion, 2% Tupi folk religion
 * Culture/Ethnicity: 96% Lustrian, 4% Tupi
 * Military: A vaguely established and organised military is consolidated by the Grand Chief (or the 'Mortal Bearer of the Lizard Gods') Urchannk . Aside from the lizard warriors, where they are trained and sworn to secrecy about their methods and how they operate, the rest of the warriors in the Lustrian warrior caste have found themselves to become known as the Rainforest Warriors rather than being untitled and voluntary. 'Bowed Protectors' (as called in Lustrian) are the archers of the Lustrian military and have been separate from the Rainforest Warriors under Azarkel's reign over the kingdom. They are trained to make their shot as accurate as possible, hitting targets for hunting purposes and to fight enemies.
 * Army:
 * 80 'Lizard Warriors' (clubmen with wooden with 'sparsely metallic' shields)
 * 300 'Rainforest Warriors' (clubmen/spearmen)
 * 120 'Bowed Protectors' (archers)
 * 9 800 fit men that could be trained into being warriors or hunters
 * Navy:
 * 320 canoes and rafts
 * 70 trading canoes
 * Diplomacy:
 * Tupi Tribes: Trading is encouraged for Lustrian civilians and tradesmen. It is to bring harmony to the Amazon rainforest.
 * Atlantis: A team of Lustrian scouts are sent to the north to find those cities and towns built by the 'white men' that do not even classify as a descendant of monkey or lizard. Maybe they were gods?
 * Events:
 * Goodbye, Azarkel: The current Mortal Bearer of the Lizard Gods, Azarkel died on 1303. At her reign, writing of the Lustrian script in pictograph has become more popular in the late 13th century after being in development since the earlier decades of the 13th century, despite that only the 1% can read and write. This was largely reserved for religious purposes, the lower Lustrian people are illiterate and do not understand them, even if these pictographs are just drawings that become language to them. The Lustrians during her reign also made trade with the Tupi tribes and this shows that even though the Lustrian creation myth disagreed with the "everyone else were monkeys and [Lustrians] were descendants of lizards", they still were beneficiary to harmony in the Amazon rainforest. Her daughter, Oroku would be made as the new Mortal Bearer in a ritual to Gezeok, the god of leadership.
 * Scouts to the North: The Lustrian Kingdom sends out scouts to the north, although they might not come back. There were rumours that these people were not the descendants of monkeys but were from somewhere else that they didn't even merit a warrant to be monkeys or lizards at all. Of course, most Lustrians don't know this. The Tupi may have encountered them as the white men from the north, this was spread to the Lustrian Kingdom too. These scouts won't survive for long, but if they find something from the north after years of expedition and came back, they have a long story to tell. (pls mod response; I am planning for a Lustrian messiah to come back as one of the scouts and probably try to reform the Lustrian religion)
 * Grand Shrine to Oshkam: Construction of the Grand Shrine to Oshkam, the creator of the known world and the creator of the Lustrian people continues in dedication to Azarkel's father and previous Mortal Bearer. It is expected to be finished by ~1310-20 CE at this rate.
