== Ethnic Groups ==
The people of Moria have a diverse set of cultures and histories.
=== Morian ===
Morian culture as a whole, although holding many distinct identities and cultures within it, has some overarching themes that its people are uniformly supportive of. Self-reliance and independence are the most important ideals of any Morian. It is common to find new towns or nations springing up, hoping to make a life for their people where imperialists and colonialists are unwelcome. Attempts at colonization always spark hostility among the native Morians.
=== Fossorean ===
The whole of the Fossores Republic (and its successor nations like the N.F.R.) developed a culture distinct from those of its individual cities. Fossoreans strongly believed in ideals such as "development, freedom, diplomacy, internal cohesion, and protecting the homeland" (Fossores Republic Wiki Page). Fossorean culture dominates Mineopolis, Blocksburg, and the Hive. It also has a strong influence in Warsiawska, Eschelle, Ezra, and Crystal Cove.
=== Celtic-Morian ===
The Celtic-Morian culture dominated the Manchester Empire, the Liverpool Empire, and Nabilzahir. It also had a strong presence in the Fossores Republic. Since the fall of Fossores, the Celtic-Morian people have dispersed across the continent. Today, its influence is most pronounced in Nabilzahir. The settlement of Llanybydder Point is also almost entirely Celtic-Morian.
=== Nabilzahir ===
Nabilzahir's culture developed as an amalgamation of Morian, Celtic-Morian, Fossorean, and Yayha culture, as well as being significantly influenced by the personality of its leader, megaladon. Nabilzahir has a strong sense of independence, and its people are loath to let outside nations too close.
=== Anderm ===
The cities of Dakuh Duzma and Sjnár Fjallborg used to make up the nation of Anderm, before their incorporation into the NAF. The two cities are closely tied to each other and represent a distinct political and cultural unit in Moria.
=== Shemite ===
The mesas of Ezra were once the heartland of Shemite culture. They were a rural, family-oriented people who avoided organized nations and urban centers, preferring instead to live instead in villages out in the desert. The Shemites followed the Notchism religion and had close ties to the Alathran Villagers. In the turmoil surrounding the fall of Fossores, the Shemite people were driven from Ezra. It is unclear exactly what happened to them or if any remain on Moria.
=== Yayha ===
In ancient times, the Yayha lived in what is now Brodesia. With the construction of Nabilzahir, Yayha culture was mostly snuffed out. Most of the Yayha people either assimilated into Nabilzahir's culture or moved on to new lands.
=== Eschellic ===
The remote island-city of Delphi has a unique culture. Because of Eschelle's reclusive nature, little is known about their culture.
=== Arcadian ===
Arcadian culture has a large influence on Mineopolis due to their occupation of the ruined town.
=== Ashinian ===
Ashina has a strong influence on the city of Unyaka, which they have controlled for many years.
=== Encavian ===
Encavian culture is present in the Imperial-controlled city of GreenFrost.
== Miscellaneous ==
