Elthrata Arit: Kalan Artistic Revolution

Cultural event

The broad sweeping artistic revolution in Renad which was natively called the "Elthrata Arit." This burst of creation in the realm was brought on by a burst of immigration from Poueiri El-folk, alongside a decrease in taxation in art markets.

The Elthrata Arit was an incredible revolution in Kala, where a combination of new ideas and uncovered tradition merged to create the open and accepting views that create modern Kala. As ideas poured in from the anarchistic elves and old pieces of art were uncovered from amateur archaeological sights, the Oligarchy of Kala would decrease taxes in the art taxable territories while also directing funding toward the period's most prolific artists. While the general public viewed this as an altruistic act from the oligarchs, it was largely done to diminish political discussion and change given the new wave of ideologies forming.   At this time, the rational J'barri would begin recognizing the innate creative capabilities inherent in all species of Laminarum. Those in fields of magic, science, and even trades became expected to prove themselves capable of expression and creation. Concepts that had already been performed, such as experiments, began to be thought of as creative endeavors rather than rigid and didactic truths, though there were people on all sides of the philosophical spectrum.   Modern courts were built and short waves of legislation were shot down in exchange for the old method of resorting to precedent. Recreations of ancient art became fairly popular, especially when it came to reimagining original pieces as mosaics.   Lastly, a small resurgence in Ferrehet reverence found its way to Kala during the revolution. While conquering so-called "superior species," such as elves, humans, or reptilians was out of the question, many wished to take their own land and experience what their patron had intended. As a result, a movement saw citizens claim wild territory outside of the nation, where they were allowed to keep their land independently of Kalan taxation, so long as they could provide proof of "conquering," which was typically through the presentation of high-trophic quarry, such as tigers. Many were against this movement, however, as it was attributed to the decline of lion populations a millennia ago (which then set up their extinction in Ettermiddag).
