About
National Overview
Dominant Culture
- Tak-Mi-Lah
- The various tribal groups within the rang occupied by the Tak-Mi-Lah peoples follow a similar cultural pattern.
Geographic Area
- Central and Western portions of the Plains of Tekara, between Tabras to the North and Aralia to the South.
Population
- The population of the Tah-Mi-Lah territories is primarily composed of the nomadic Tak-Mi-Lah peoples. In some bands ethnic outsiders may be present, but it is a rare thing. Some foreign ethnic settlements exist, mostly as small hamlets or trade outposts along the borders of what is considered their territory. The occupants of such locales are usually of Tabrani or Aralian origin. The Malys have some presence along the Eastern edge of the territory.
Government

Law Making
- The Tak-Mi-Lah follow an oral tradition and as such their laws are not a written document, but a living story of the various rulings made by the ancestral and current ruling matriarchs. The Tak-Mi-Lah favour restorative justice, and a re-connection to the community and one's place within nature, over punitive measures. However, great wrongs, such as murder, warrant more serious responses. Exile from the tribe is the last option before putting an offender to death.
Enforcement
- The common law is enforced by social contract amongst the tribes membership. Everyone is expected to help those in conflict to regain their place amongst the clan and tribe.
Taxation
- Taxes in the form of tribute are paid to the matriarch of each tribe. Such wealth is used to support her immediate family, and any less fortunate members of the tribe.
Public Works
- As a nomadic people, the Tak-Mi-Lah have no physical infrastructure on a national level. Some tribes may may moderate improvements to regular camp sites, or resources, but this is done on an individual basis and is not a nationally organized activity.
