The Matokté Tashnacate was a large nomadic empire based in the Earplanne region of Crona. Originating in the eastern plains of modern Arcerion, the indigenous Matokté peoples eventually subdued the other nomadic tribes of the area and began a long period of conquest which eventually led to it conquering and subsuming much of the North Songun civilization and briefly becoming the predominant power in central Crona.
Etymology
The term Matokté in the languages of the Earplanne generally means "bear hunter", and it referred to the specific tribal groups who established the empire. Its origin is not known but the term appears to have been used in some North Songun civilization records to refer to a group of nomads as early as the 10th century.
