	As mentioned before, areas that were never conquered by the big historical empires tend to have more barbarians, which means there are clusters of barbarian countries on the edges of the maps. Most of Southern [[Meridia]] is full of various Native American cultures, with some African tribal cultures in [[Limpopo]] and [[Katagonia]]. Most of [[Boreas]] is also a cluster for barbarians, with the exception of [[Sylvanator]] and some of the larger cities in [[Ruslav]]. Additionally [[Millmeran]] is populated largely by Barbarians and mongrels. Otherwise Barbarians are scattered in isolated pockets throughout the world, providing a glimpse into the tribal pasts of humans everywhere.

	~~Barbarians~~ are not one specific culture, but rather can be members of any tribal culture from around the world, as long as it is placed in the correct analog country. Areas that were never conquered by massive uniting empires like [[Thracia]], [[Uthmanli]], or [[Shalkara]] often have a much larger ~~Barbarian~~ populations. The biggest key to the preservation of these cultures is their dedication to their traditions, and limited interaction with outside cultures, either by choice or isolation.

	~~Barbarians~~ live in tribes or clans, occupying steadings or villages numbering usually no more than several hundred, rather than forming large towns and cities. Agriculture typically plays a much smaller role in the society, though livestock and animal husbandry are quite prevalent. Barbarians, regardless of culture, tend to be a very martially oriented society, with a much higher percentage of the society being familiar with the handling of weapons. They tend to be an incredibly honest and forthright people, open in who they are, who they like, and who they don’t like. They also tend to have very strong traditions and sense of community. Regard for cultural outsiders typically ranges from mere disinterest all the way to visceral hatred.

	As mentioned before, areas that were never conquered by the big historical empires tend to have more barbarians, which means there are clusters of barbarian countries on the edges of the maps.
