General Regional Culture

Just like we refer to "Western culture" and "the Middle East" on Earth, Shiora can be split (very roughly) into general regional cultures, defined by spheres of influence from major and powerful countries. The terminology here is based on the continent and specifies from there, so most terms begin with "West" or "East" and are hyphenated.

West-Northern
This region, which might be referred to as the Bynnish-Cseban region, consists of everything on the Western continent north of the Black Line. West-northern culture is the third-most varied of the major regions on Shiora, mostly split between Bynnish cultures and splinters, Cseban cultures and splinters, and small groups that are influenced by both.

West-North-Northwestern
West-north-northwestern culture is primarily Bynnish, reaching through the countries [MISSING]. This is the cradle of Bynnish language and art, characterized by unique poetry and song as well as early examples of extreme philosophies. The existence of giants in Bynnish areas helped to create a complex and detailed mythology in the area.

West-North-Northeastern
West-north-northeastern culture is characterized by heavy Bynnish influence, but is mutated by several hundred years of native conflicts, [MISSING] trade, and Pradian colonization. Military culture mirrors far southern cultures due to a similarity between how the two locations interact with nearby cultures.
