The Races

Humans: humans are the most prolific race of Amora. They are found on all 3 continents and in the central isles. There are four powerful human kingdoms/empires: 1.) Karthay: Karthay began as a small group of cities at the mouth of the Dido river famed for trade and notorious for piracy and brigandage. However, in the last two generations, the Karthayan nobles have overhauled the city's government, stamped out corruption, and crushed the brigands and pirates that used to lord over the land and sea. This is not to say that such behaviors are absolutely forbidden, but the karthayans have worked very hard to gain legitimacy in the eyes of the rest of the world. Nevertheless, Karthay is seen as a country where a honeyed tongue, style, and money will get you anything.
The Karthayan noble houses, having formed a council (closer to a senate, with 100 members) have gone from being interested in only trade to having imperial ambitions. Karthay, using powerful citizen militias and mercenaries, have conquered most of the territory surrounding the tributaries of the Dido river. Since this is the largest river on the southern continent (in fact, the largest river in Amora), it represents a hugely profitable trade route, and Karthay has grown ever richer through this move. Their territory is very large, second only to Czarra in raw surface area).
The Karthayans employ an infantry heavy force, centered on their heavy infantry citizen militia. These troops are supported by light and medium infantry auxiliaries from subjugated peoples, as well as a mixed citizen/mercenary/auxiliary cavalry (medium to heavy, with very little super-heavy knights).
The Karthayan school of magic is an earth/metal focused school.
The Karthayan religion places Father Mountain as the head of their pantheon, With Dido, the lifegiving River Goddess as his consort. In recent times, the War God Diomed has also gained prominence.
