History
The Salan people have lived on the continent for more than a thousand years. At first, they have formed a state in the North of the Itomgrod continent (Around year 200). There isnt a lot known about this country, only approximate borders and what happened after it's collapse.
The approximate borders of the Salan state in northern Itomgrod
After the collapse of the first Salan state, The Salans have divided as majority of them fled deep inland. The other part fled east and they set up a country by the northeast coast of the Itomgrod continent. The country got eventually annihilated by other tribes.
The country's borders for most of it's existence
The country's borders at it's greatest extend (short-lived)
Deep inland, they managed trade and manufacture of products. The old Salan state has formed several times over there, but always collapsed either due to infighting or chaos brought by wild tribes in the area. The longest the nation managed to hold a state together was during the rule of king Lakamir, from the house of Eternalli. The Kingdom lived in isolation and only dealed with outside world when it was totally necessary. After it's inevitable collapse due to overwhelming raids by enemy tribes, much of the population escaped north, with the intellectuals leading the masses promising a fair, free and prospherous country for the nation. They entered the land that was once controled by the very first Salan state. But the north was inhabited by yet another tribes. It was just then when the Drusskian state suddenly collapsed due to internal matters. As the once industrial country engulfed itself in chaos, the Salans from the north entered the ruins of a country on mass and started settling the abandoned land that their brothers controlled very long time ago themselves. The Drusskian population fell down rapidly, with the people being massacred in the chaos by their own, fleeing, or later deported from the country by the regional administrations of the Salans. Despite that, some Drusskians managed to stay and live within the new Salan country. Salans have also managed to rebuild or reopen many of the factories built by Drusskia and improve some of its infrastructure. After tens of years of settling in, the provisional administration has dissolved the temporary Salan Provisional Council and declared The Salan Republic. The elections were held shortly with the conservatives barely managing to beat the liberals and forming a coalition of the national bloc. In 1921, an event called Bloody Tuesday took place. Entire parties got wiped out by organized assasinations. Following the event, Salanskia entered temporary counter-terrorist regime.

Culture
The culture of the Salans is mostly based on slavs (Slovaks and Sorbs to be exact). The Salans also have strong german influence and many of them could be identified as "german slavs". With a strong sense of collectivism, the Salans make a strong unit. Religious structure of Salanskia consists of two religions that also strongly shape the culture. These are the Catholic Christianity, which was spread through Salans hunderds of years ago. However, there is a second religion that predates Christianity in the Salan community. This religion is Hagno-Septerism. The religion is highly conservative and holds ideals like a man being able to have up to 3 wives, woman submitting to his man, conquering other tribes/countries and holding dominance, raiding other tribes/countries during the night and paying respects to the moon and night. They believe in a supreme god named Hag and then various spirits like Areiton (Spirit of War), Kastor (Spirit of Life), Mona (Spirit of Water) etc. The Septerists are fighting for their government to encourage their beliefs.
