Kalkdui
This country linked to this page will not be completed for a long time, as Lanborg is in the main focus of the builders. This page is mostly used for notes for the future. To go back to the Main Page, click here.
Kalkdui (Dun Script: كالكدوي) is a planned region of the Thorildsby Project, part of the Unified Commonwealth. Its location will be west of Årania, with close ties to them due to centuries long friendship, such as support against the Lanborg Empire during the War of Dignity. They will be located in a desert, with temperatures often reaching 35 degrees in normal circumstances while speaking Kalkdui language (Frisian), sometimes using Dun Script (Arabic Script). The capitol is called Al-Dessanin or الءديسسانين meaning ancient sands, reflecting on the old heritage of the city.
Culture
Practicing culture in Kalkdui is considered positive by the general public, as the country helped Årania during the War of Dignity. This is why Åranian culture is closely related to Kalkdui culture, which is able to be seen in its cuisine, architecture and art. However, after the War of Dignity, Kalkdui was seen as a country with little economic oppurtunities, making many descendants of Åranian-Kalkdui families move to Årania, therefore decreasing the Kalkdui population. However, Kalkdui has higher birth rate than its surrounding countries, making up for the diaspora.
Cuisine
Kalkdui cuisine is strongly portrayed by its usage of spices, which were exported to the rest of the world through them, as most spices were native in Kalkdui. As the growth of these spices is disadvantaged in other climates, spices were seen as a luxury food for centuries until the end of the war in Årania in 48Ð, when trading started flourishing throughout the neighbouring regions, as Kalkdui and Thorildhøj helped in the War of Dignity, which mixed the local populations.
Kalkdui Cuisine is very widespread throughout the world, unlike the Kalkdui diaspora. This means that unlike the Cuisine of Lanborg or Cuisine of Årania which are often performed by locals, Kalkdui Cuisine is not.
