==== Architecture ====
The architecture and design of Silvan towns is something of up most importance when settling as they attempt to include nature into it as much as possible while keeping it methodical slow planning for quality over quantity which they do because they think that if they used the God's resources to create ugly buildings the God's would be angered at them specifically Atterizamos would be mad.
==== Clothing ====
Tight fit, movable clothing is worn to allow the Silvans to hunt whenever they need especially during the summer. The sacred colors of the people are Green and Silver to represent the hero Venandi's sigil, the Silver Stag. During the winter Silvans typically wear all black clothes with wolf furred coats. To some Silvans it is very important to change their attire depending on many things such as if it is a full moon, if the sun is up, non-animal clothing, etc. however most modern Silvans wear the same thing year long.
==== Music ====
Music is not very important to the Silvans the only types of instruments that exist in the culture are small string instruments that mostly used just for weddings, funerals, and other holidays.

=== <u>Silvan tribe unification</u> ===
One thousand years after the disappearance of Venandi the tribes of the forest has significantly advanced culturally and technologically with the discovery of the arcane magics and with such advancements this had called for major political reformation. The current tribes at the time were Fangi, Gboto, Tsubamo, Susha, and Sasheso although Fangi and Susha were the most prosperous. In the year 'e'igi tasosu 'eta the Fangi tribe had elected a radical leader by the name of Ditso that had a dream of a united forest tribe nation and he called it Silva the Old Silvan name that people used to describe the gods, or in other words "all powerful". Ditso successfully was able to convince Gboto join Fangi under the banner of the Silvan Federation which would be represented by a Golden Stag which most considered sacrilegious. Fangi would go on to rename its self to "Romanus Silva". Over the course of the next 6 years Ditso had united all the tribes except Sasheso due to how far north it was and the distance from Romanus Silva, Ditso would grow increasingly worried as his 8 year term as leader was almost over and his dream was not yet realized. Ditso then resorted to drastic measures and used arcane magicians combined with canons to blow down the walls around Sasheso to attempt to force them to join the Federation, Sasheso would hold out until two weeks before Ditso's term was over before the Sasheso Lord came out and surrendered himself to the Federation. Once the armies returned to Romanus Silva on the final day of Ditso's term the civillan population would learn of what Ditso had done and would riot through the streets. These riots caused Silvan extremists to call for Ditso's term to be illegally extended while others opposed them. The rioting went on for a week before Ditso put himself under self imposed exile and left the nation he had created.
