Theocracy of Ngwih

=== Overview ===
The Theocracy of Ngwih is the last and possibly greatest Lizardfolk nation of Ferra. A thousand five hundred years of war, genocide and losing their ancestral homelands has forged a nation of sheer determination and will. It is not fighting for itself. It is fighting for the survival of its own race, for revenge and to right the thousand wrongs committed against them by the Imperials.
They worship their gods but know the gods must serve them. Losing the belief of the Lizardfolk would mean the fall of any of their gods, and they are willing to do anything necessary to survive.
=== Geography ===
The Theocracy of Ngwih is located on the island Deruvou and the western islands. Though their naval vessels are not comparable to the imperial battleships, their gods of the sea and their domestication of great beasts of the ocean make the island almost impervious to imperial invasion. Nonetheless, the theocracy hides their cities inland, deep within the winding and dangerous jungles where the gods of the jungle and of the hunt guide their followers safely to their destination but utterly destroy any outsiders..
=== History ===
The Theocracy has no one single start date. Even before the arrival of the Old Empire lizardfolk myth spoke of a great empire called Ngwih which had once united all lizardfolk tribes and kingdoms in harmony. During the years since, as the lizardfolk were pushed further and further east, the idea of a united front became more and more accepted. There was no proclamation of the theocracy and technically the old kingdoms and tribes still exist, but everything, the old kingdoms, family and clan, the individual and the gods were put subservient to the survival of the Lizardfolk.
The imperial understanding of a nation or even a state does not apply. Ngwih isn't a nation. It is a race. A race that was pushed into a corner. A race gathering its strength and preparing to pounce.
