Cartadania: Difference between revisions

Many aspects of Cartadanian culture can be traced back to the early cultures of Western Levantia and the Latinic Empires of the past and their collision with Cartadania's native civilizations. The Latin brought Catholicism, Punthites, and the feudal encomienda system. After the fall of Caphirian rule over the Odridian peninsula, the Cartadanian people attempted to establish a pluralistic political system, between conservative and liberal ideals, however it was not without difficulty. The conservatives supported the involvement of the Catholic Church in the state, while liberals favored the separation of these. Some aspects of Cartadanian culture are contributions of Caphirian, Coscivian, Pelaxian, and other immigrants. Native people and Alsharis played a large role in the formation of the Cartadanian language, cuisine, music, dance, and religion. The famous elements of Cartadanian culture are its art, music, style, and iconic food. Popular tastes in drama in Cartadania have long favored comedy; the improvisational style known as the Comédia de arte began in Cartadania in the mid-16th century and is still performed today.
