The Suratians were a Classical civilization that existed alongside both the first Caphiran Republic as well as the first Caphiran Imperium. Much of what scholars know about the Suratian civilization comes with the cooperation of the Caphiran government as well as cross examination with ancient Caphiran records.
The Suratii were comprised of approximately two hundred distinct tribes that interacted throughout Southern Sarpedon. They eventually homogenized into a single de Jure entity that we now refer to as Suratia. While there were many linguistic differences between the Suratian tribes - they did share a handful of cultural similarities. Paramount of which was their religious pantheon and folklore. They were also very fond of horses and were noted by Caphiran records at the time as being quite skilled Hit and Run fighters.
Many of Chrobonsk’s National epics were written during this time, the most famous of which is “En Ektus”. The Suratian Civilization is also incredibly well preserved. Archaeologists have unearthed entire Suratian villages in the southern part of the nation. Srimonsk was at one point the capital of the Suratian Civilization known as Kaktan. Many archaeological endeavors have been made to excavate more of the ancient city. One of Srimonsk’s most well preserved ruins is the Fortress of Kaktan - which was preserved in the 1500’s to maintain the Chrobonskian national identity and cultural heritage.
- The Suratian Civilization arose after a single powerful tribe united all of the other warring tribes and fought against Caphirian influence in South Sarpedon.
- The conflict against Caphiria is the source of many epics
- There was a legendary tribal leader that is still considered to be a hero today in Chrobonsk
- The Suratii tribes were very linguistically and culturally diverse and when they became homogenized into a singular civilization - many of their cultural identities were lost.
- The Suratii tribes were as mercantile as they were warlike
