Tynican Pagan
The pagans of the Tynic Peninsula are the dominant ethnic/culture group in Tynica. For much of Woodangian history Tynica was part of Niccadia, and the religious practices of the pagans were often suppressed by the more secular Niccadians. It was only after Niccadia was split into two provinces after joining Dijit and Ontangees that Tynican Pagans were able to establish a Hungarian speaking territory. Now being the dominant demographic in Tynica means that Pagans are able to openly practice their religious customs and hold many festivals and have built many monuments to their many gods.
The Opression of the pagans began after the Brothers war, one of the first recorded conflicts on Woodangees. Niccadia became the dominant power in Woodangees and began trying to change the Hungarian speaking religious population of Tynica to German speaking secularists. Their efforts to convince the Tynicans that their religion was mere superstition did nothing but breed animosity.
