Fiannria is a unique state within the continent of Levantia, coined the melting pot of peoples, Fiannria is a multi-ethnic state whose shared religion and history form the identity of the nation more than the actual languages and cultural practicies. This has led to a blend of cultural practices, language, and a history unlike anywhere else in Levantia. Often the people of Fiannria liken the nation to [[:en:Celtic_knot|Celtic knotwork]], each band interwoven in the knot, tied into it and inseperable, but its own unique band all the same. Religion has played a major role throughout the history of the nation and before its founding, being its first uniting element in the land of various kingdoms, tribes and peoples. Fiannria's preChristian heritage still plays a role and assimilated into the church teachings and practices along side new folk traditions that devloped and unified the various cultures that remain a part of the cultural tradition today. | Fiannria is a unique state within the continent of Levantia, coined the melting pot of peoples, Fiannria is a multi-ethnic state whose shared religion and history form the identity of the nation more than the actual languages and cultural practicies.
