Jomtu Oasis

Jomtu Oasis is a War Nation with no allies by choice. Other kingdoms see the Nation as barbaric and uncivilised. It is extremely hot and dry in Jomtu Oasis. The buildings are made with thick walls to keep the indoors cool during the day. This Kingdom mines metals and raises goats mainly. Cactus fruit can be gathered here, but overall there is very little growing done.
Since metal can become very hot, it is not commonly used as armor. In fact, little armor is worn. Instead the warriors are trained for quick thinking and action. Any armor that is worn is made from thick fiber like grass or wool.
While Jomtu Oasis is considered the central, and largest city, the entire Kingdom is made up of a few different tribes. Most are aligned under one banner as they continue the fight for territory against Shemha. Unaligned tribes can fall prey to pillagers within the Kingdom.
This kingdom accepts all currencies, even unused ones and Animan currency if the occasional one ends up there. It is only referred to as 'gold', and buying power increses with weight. Jomtu Oasis also has bartering. People usually barter for items obtained by raiding Kingdoms outside theirs. Baywen and Shemha are especially favored for plant products, animals, clothing, slaves, as well as precious stones to name a few. It is common to for raiders to completely clean out a village or town if given enough time- even taking some of the buildings apart for materials to sell.
Jomtu Oasis has very separate religious and political beliefs from the rest of the world. Like the other Whispermen, they believe Animen to be creatures of evil, and any that enter your life bring bad luck. They believe the 'pale faces' (Jomtu Oasis citizens are very dark skinned) are inferior and wish to enslave them all. Fortunately for the rest of the world, they are fewer in number and ill equipped for raiding to the north.
