High Kingdom of Avalon

The **High Kingdom of Avalon** was a nation formed by the surviving British peoples following the following the Terran Diaspora in 2130. They have genetically modified themselves into the Doraf, regarding Humans as their creators.

## Technology

Their technology is roughly equivalent to that of Yamashiro in the year
50 AC, meaning that their tech is about 200 - 250 years behind that of
Yamashiro. This puts them slightly ahead of the level of when the human
diaspora started settling new worlds. They have basic warp drive, but
it’s not good enough to travel beyond their star system with any
practicality, as the time needed to reach their nearest star would take
unreasonably long. They have all the conveniences of the era such as
satellites, GPS, internet, mobile devices and so forth. They still use
fossil fuels, but have invested a lot into renewable energy such as wind
 farms, hydroelectric dams, and solar panels.

## Society

The Doraf are humble, and do not claim credit for being original
inhabitants of the planet, or even the first settlers. They are the
creations and inheritors of human British colonists who came before
them. Whilst they have partial British DNA and could arguably be
descendents, the Doraf shy away from the tag claiming to be unworthy.
They call humans the mother precursor race. The Doraf revere their long
gone creators and try to carry on their culture, will, and ideals that
they gifted to the Doraf.

In a single sentence the society of the Doraf on the planet Avalon can
be described as ‘The British countryside in space with cow people’. It
is an idyllic and sleepy world where people have tea and crumpets for
breakfast, then heading out to the town market and tending their
farmland.

Avalon is governed as a constitutional monarchy with a king or queen as
head of state. Generally the government is pretty low key, as the
society is so peaceful and self regulating.

War has never been known, so the Doraf have no armed forces. Whilst
there are a small number of large cities, most of the populace live in
smaller countryside towns. Crime is a minor occurrence and ‘serious
crime’ in Doraf culture would be seen as a minor annoyance in others.
Only a small police force is needed to keep order. The populace are
unfailingly friendly and polite, and nobody needs to lock their doors.

There is a lopsided gender ratio where twice as many girls are born as
boys, and a high proportion of twins. Because of the previously
mentioned sexual dimorphism, a pregnant Doraf mother will usually give
birth to one larger boy or two smaller girls. A typical family will
consist of the father who is traditionally the head of the household,
his two physically much smaller wives, and the children.

Doraf women normally don’t like roaming around a lot. Their short
stature, plus top heaviness induced by their horns and large breasts
makes it more difficult to travel around like the men. So they
habitually tend to remain in a localised area. It is known for some
Doraf women to have never set foot outside the county of their birth.

## Agriculture

A big mention must be made about their agriculture. Doraf eat a LOT and
will easily consume in a week what an equivalent human family would eat
in a month. To feed their large appetites, they have an advanced
agricultural sector. A lot of biotechnology, sweat, time, and good old
fashioned farming instinct is put into the production of food. It is by
far the largest and most important sector of the Doraf’s economy and
everyone knows somebody who works in the farming industry. By the magic
of genetic engineering, the crops on Avalon are large, pest resistant,
delicious, and nutritious. Also because of the previous mentioned
properties of the planet, Avalonian vegetables are high in natural
calcium and strontium making them good for bone growth.

Another unique strength of their agriculture is dairy products, however
the Doraf world doesn’t milk cows. Since the Doraf women constantly
produce milk from their breasts, they need a number of ways to regularly
 empty them. Generally every family home will have a milking machine for
 the use of female family members, or a hand pump. Villages, towns, and
cities also having public pumping stations where a woman can go. There
are also a number of kinkier ways requiring a willing assistant; usually
 a husband or lover.

The milk can be used in a variety of ways. Of course the Doraf woman’s
family will use it first, either by drinking it with tea or on its own,
or making cakes, cheese, etc. with it. If it’s not possible for a family
 to use it all, culturally it’s common for Doraf to put it in the
fridge, then take it to a milk collection centre later where it
contributes to a local bakery or cheese maker. Whole counties and
regions make a big deal about how tasty their cakes or cheese are
because of the (debatably non-existent) ‘regional variations’ of their
milk.

## Clothing

Doraf dress like humans. Male clothing however is much larger than
female clothing. Women dress as one would expect a human woman to dress,
 but they need very large bras, and often wear milk absorbent pads,
which have the side effect of making their breasts look even bigger.

## Religion

The Doraf of Avalon have a strong belief, however it’s not accurate to
call it a ‘religion’, as it’s not a belief in the divine. They don’t
worship at temples, their weddings have no aspect of religion in them,
their funeral rites mention nothing about gods.

Rather than believing in a god or gods, it's more like they follow a
certain philosophy of living and moral conduct. A similar Earth example
would be Confucianism, where its practitioners didn't worship a divine
being or supernatural force. Instead they followed the life teachings of
 the philosopher Confucius, and try to live life according to his
teachings.

The original British settlers of this world taught the Doraf many of the
 ideas found in their original earth religion Protestantism. Doraf know
of the basics, such as loving thy neighbour, seven deadly sins, heaven,
and so forth. However their creators never strongly preached about
divine ideas such as god, Satan, salvation, Jesus, etc. perhaps having
lost their faith in certain elements of the Christian religion during
the war on Earth against the titans.

Dorafs follow the philosophies and teachings given to them by their creators, and everyday they try to live up to these ideals.
