Thýstara: Difference between revisions

'''Thýstara''' is an island colony of the [[Kiravian Federacy]] located in extreme northwestern [[Punth]].

Thýstara is a {{wp|settler society}} comprising people, cultural elements, and social institutions transplanted from other parts of the Kiravian Federacy. It's history and geography have given the colonists' culture a strong frontier ethos that values hard work and self-reliance.

Thýstara's first civilian colonists were [[Koskenkorva|Koskenkorvans]] from their home island's far northern end who established the settlements of Tagakūla and Inovintergen (English: "New [[Wintergen]]") on the southeastern shore. Subsequently, the Kiravian government encouraged the emigration of new settlers from Coscivian ethnic groups whose traditional lifestyles were compatible with the subarctic marine climate of Thýstara, such as the various North Coscivian and Sēoran Coscivian peoples, Arnóriem, Lúnstem, Kroysanyem, Túkluskan Coscivians, Psikorviem, and Ice Coscivians, as well as non-Coscivian Rhūniks and Finnic-speaking groups from Koskenkorva and the Northern Isles. Most of these settlers came from the states of [[Intravia]], [[Vôtaska]], [[Lataskia]], and [Northwestern coastal state], and as such, the culture of Thýstara is strikingly similar to that of the [[Great Kirav#Zone A - North Coast|North Coast]]. In the 21200s, renewed economic interest in Punth and the expansion of the mining industry encouraged [[Saxalin Islands|Saxalin Islanders]] to relocate to Thýstara, from the Antarctic Circle to the Arctic.
