Sintomoro

The **City State of Sintomoro** was a city state located at -2158, 64, 1059. It is a city built around the first of the wells that their religion holds so sacred.

## Etymology

It is guessed that the name of the city and the nation come from a merging of the Sintomor words *Sinto*, meaning center, or central, and *morur*, meaning place. According to legend, the location was unnamed, until the first well was discovered, and eventually it became the center of Sintomoran civilization.

## History

#### Legend Period

A lot of Sintomoran history is based in legends told from times long forgotten. Unless explicitly stated, all information preceding and shortly after the discovery of the wells is from legend and is not actually confirmed. To start off, it is said that the Sintomoran people came from the local swamps and eventually began exploring beyond the swamp. Legend has it that the first well was discovered, setting Sintomoran society in motion. It is not known what the government was like at the time. Later stories tell of Sintomoran civilization branching out and developing new towns in the region, but there haven't been any ruins found.

#### Early History

Not much survives from this era of Sintomoran history, with time having reduces much of the knowledge. However the first recorded document from Sintomoran history marks the beginning of the modern Sintomoran government form, when the wealthy aristocrat Estrili Enaki took control of the city, declared himself Renomont, and started to assemble the Fisrt Sintomoran Council, a group of advisors. He also established the tradition of assigning the next Renomont of Sintomoro. After many generations, the Sintomorans have not changed too much from back them, with the notable exception of Datri Manokk, who organized the Sintomoran Cartography Guild (*Ideronom Sintomoro*). Today we are on the 142nd Sintomoran Council, which will lead us to greatness.

## Government and Politics

### Structure

#### Renomont

At the very top of the Sintomoran government is the Renomont, who is always chosen by the previous Renomont. If a Renomont is not chosen, the Sintomoran Council will vote for the next Renomont. The Renomont has final say over laws and policies in Sintomoro.

#### Sintomoran Council

The Sintomoran Council is a group of advisors to the Renomont, assembled by the Renomont out of Sintomorans of their choice, who can be from any previous councils or can be an aristocrat. The councillors will all be assigned to different positions, and will make laws and policies, unless the Renomont decides otherwise. There is no current Renomont as there is no current Sintomoro

 Infrastructure

### Economy

The main part of Sintomoran external economy was trade, with the majority of internal economy being wage labor, all based around gold, whether in nuggets or ingots. The use of gold allegedly dates back to the discovery of the first well. (will be expanded in the future)

## Demographics

### Language

Almost every Sintomoran speaks Sintomor (section will be expanded depending on surroundings)

### Race

The majority of Sintomorans are of the Sintomoran race, which look like bird humanoids (art coming soon). (other stuff tbd)

### Religion

While Sintomoro might not have a state mandated religion, there is quite a bit of pressure on non-believers to believe in the power of the Wesontory, the basis of many Sintomoran legends and other facets of culture. (more tbd)
