[quote=@Flagg] [@Forest Bandit] Another idea I had was that there could be a significant ethnically Chee population in Dratha lands- perhaps enslaved?- and maybe one of the Chee Nation tribes might be an exiled Dratha clan. Sorry for the double post. [/quote] No problem. I like that last idea very much. There'll be no end of bad blood between our peoples, and it'll add to the fun of trying to establish common ground before the North invades and murders us. I like what you've done with the religious side of things. Man, our people are gonna hate each other from the get go. Also, referring to [i]"if the Dratha did push the Chee northwards, it likely would have been a slow process over many centuries."[/i], this is what I meant. The Dratha are the more "civilised", with permanent settlements and I'm assuming an expanding population, correct? MY peoples by contrast are nomadic, travelling from one area to the next. Their population would be relatively small in comparison, (at the moment I'm predicting around 4 million, which includes children and the infirm.) Naturally, when it came to competition for resources, I imagine the Dratha would have had the upper hand. So over the centuries, the Chee would have gradually moved further north.
