History
The first evidence of sapient species in the northwest dates back as early as -902 in the era of creation. Like all species, Tonkans began as very primitive people, only beginning to form tribes around -100. The structure of Tonkan tribes largely depended on whether or not they were sedentary. For example, some tribes of the great plains were nomadic while some desert tribes were sedentary, leading to very different ways of life. Of course, due to the nature of these species, inter-tribal conflict could not be avoided and thus many battles were started frequently such as the Great Tall Grass Ambush in year 5 over a desirable place for settlement, and the Blood Hills in the southeast plains over a singular hill many tribes claimed as sacred. However, despite all this, things took a complicated turn with the arrival of the Goldsbergs.
Demography and Population
Tonka’s population is significantly smaller than other kingdoms of Caelesti due to its infertile soil.
