Vishman Culture

Vishman Culture on Famana that exists in eastern Hasmal around the Vishma River and believes in the Omosha religion, the system which exists in two periods, the first period existed from about Year 180 to Year 464, which declined after the invasion of Ad’ovi, and the second period which existed from Year 767 to Year 1017, which the culture system had been abolished in Year 1017.

Vishma had a very unique system where there is a leader of all the nations, called the Velorad, and each nation within Vishma has to serve a certain role for the Velorad. When the king of the current Velorad dies, each nation within Vishma has to vote for the next one (they cannot vote for themselves). If the nation refuses to become Velorad, they will be cursed by Mansheva and all the other countries will kill the nation that refused. Mansheva is the spiritual leader of the Vishmans and the nation that founded the Omosha religion. Mansheva can vote up to 5 times but Mansheva cannot become the Velorad.

The history of culture and these nations and roles are listed below.

### Origin (180)

According to History of Famana Episode 26, in year 180, it shows that there were about 17 Vishma nations, which belief in Omosha religion. This religion mentions that there are used to be 3 Great Gods created the world, The God of night, The God of day, and The God of life. However, the civil war had broken out between them and they were all killed by each other. The body part of them fell and made the Amatanians. According to this, they believe that the Gods don't exist anymore. They're all the successors of the Gods, and they have to mourn the death of Gods.

### First System Period (180-464)

Because of that, the Vishmas established a culture system, which is called Vishma Culture, which exists in eastern Hasmal around the Vishma River and Omosha religion. According to this system, there is a leader of all the nations, called the Velorad, and each nation within Vishma has to serve a certain role for the Velorad. When the king of current Velorad passed away, each nation within Vishma has to vote for the new Velorad but they cannot vote for themselves. Each of Vishman nations was required to supply their own materials and perform their rules to Velorad. If the nation has been chosen for Velorad but the nation refused to be new Velorad, they will be cursed by Mansheva and all the other countries will kill the nation that refused.

According to the video of History of Famana, Shovela is the first Velorad.

Vishman was mentioned again in History of Famana Episode 27 at 1:31-3:31, exactly 2 minutes. In Year 186, which shows that Shovela is still the Velorad. However tensions among the Vishman nations increase, with Lemasho disapproving of current Velorad Shovela, and Melshia started growing its ambition for being new Velorad. Melshia manages to persuade Shamo to vote for it instead of Shamo's ally Noshem Ed. While the latter tries to reason with Shamo, but it turns out no avail. It's unclear that whether Melshia had achieved its conspiracy or not, since later episodes of History of Famana didn't mentioned Vishma anymore and the History of Famana Every Year didn't shows the map of Hasmal until Year 328. We just know empty about What's happen in Vishma in next 142 years, which is Year 186-328.

During somewhere between Year 186-328, Lemasho and Devshom were united into Lemasho-Devshom and became the new Velorad. There may have been several times of changing Velorad before, but with lacking of data, this is still a mystery. Also Shamo was conquered by Melshia during this time. In 353, Melshia's alliance lost war to Lemasho-Devshom alliance, the latter annexed whole of Melshia.

In 464, during the Ad'ovi Invasion of Vishma, most of the Vishma nations were annexed by Ad'ovi Empire, which made the First Vishman Culture declined. Melshia got its independence.

### Second System Period (767-1017)

After 303 years, Red'lom restored the Vishman system of government in Year 767, Boshy, Zevisyn, Csaya, Kishem, Tsupari, West Uyshia, East Uyshia, Dech and 2 unreadable nations joined into it. The amount of members was 11 when it recreated, Red'lom was a Velorad. In 829, West Uyshia expanded westward. In 855, Kishem conquered the unreadable nation, made the amount of members became 10. In 872, Boshy conquered one of the state of Do'vi Nations.

In 919, Red'lom conquested Tsupari, made the amount of members became 9. In 922, Dech was conquered by Aysonist Chonusa which didn't belonged to Vishman, the amount of members decreased to 8. In 933, West Uyshia, East Uyshia and another unreadable nations united, became Uyshia and new Velorad, made only 6 members in the system now. In 997, Zevisyn collapsed and split into Boshy and Red'lom, only 5 members left.

In 1015, Uyshia invaded Red'lom and caused the Vishman Civil War. One year later, Boshy joined Red'lom side and Csaya joined Uyshia side. The war ended in Year 1017, which Uyshia side won and Red'lom side lost, Red'lom collapsed, and its 50% of territory have been ceded by Uyshia and Csayan Empire, while the remaining part of territory became Devshom, a vassal of Uyshia. At the same time Boshy just lost its 20% territory to Csayan Empire. However, the whole of Vishman Culture System have been abolished in that time, ending its 250 years lifetime of second period and about 534 years of all periods.
