Half and quarter Glaistics were commonplace, but Miama was the first whose both parents were Glaistic, or at least had minimal [[Istroyan people|Istroyan]] ancestry. Miama actively worked to destroy and remove Istroyan influence and history by destroying Istroyan temples, appointing Glaistic officials over Istroyan and there are even records of her attempting to create a Glaistic script to replace the Istroyan one. | ||
Miama worried for the future of Glaistic culture, which is why she also invested heavily into the documentation of their practices and beliefs. She was the first Salidran leader to also completely abandon the Istroyan pantheon in favour of the Glaistic one and even momentarily criminalized the Glaistos from practising the Istroyan religion. | Miama worried for the future of Glaistic culture, which is why she also invested heavily into the documentation of their practices and beliefs.

Over time, Miama's legacy gave women of her time more power than before, being allowed in ruling positions in monarchies and democracies alike. Many historians attribute her as the figure which shattered the very male-dominated society typical for the time for a society where women were allowed to reach high positions, at least on a judiciary level. | Despite the initial shock and outrage of the kingdom being ruled by a woman for years, it quickly started discussion in the upper classes of society whether or not women should be allowed to become archons.
