===Sports===
Knassania is the only mainland Kiravian province where soccer has a significant grassroots following, albeit in the form of {{wp|Swamp football|swamp soccer}}. After most of the [[Kiravian national soccer team]] was killed in the 2024 Béyasar explosion, the Pan-Kiravian Soccer Promotion Association scouted several top players from Knassania's semi-pro swamp soccer leagues and eventually signed Sebat Kebena, a Pine Swamp Coscivian {{wp|Noodling|hand-fisherman}}. Kebena had difficulty adjusting to dry-land soccer and resigned from the team after a locker room fight with veteran right-back [[Téodar Konsaháken]].
Fever Swamp Coscivians regard any sports or games that allow scoring in increments of 1 as taboo, and as such reject swamp soccer in favour of fen football.
