United Northern Emirates

The , or Hamsi Unimas Normer, are one of the native factions on Utopan. They live in the northern reaches of the Kached continent, further north than any of the other major powers, and thus out of reach of most conflict. 
==Culture==
The UNE have a weaker army and less of a military tradition than the other powers, but due to the forbidding cold of their native area need little more than their elite soldiers, the Ice Fangs, to fend off enemy advances. They place great value on family, and it is not uncommon for family gatherings to consist of hundred of people, some of whom may only be related to each other by marriage.
==Military==
The UNE military is largely composed of cavalry riding on trained bear-like animals. They have no real firearms- most soldiers have spear throwers similar to the Aztec atl-atl. There are still soldiers with firearms, but few are issued to the soldiers, making it a matter of price- the soldier must generally purchase his own gun and ammunition.
