Kohia

Weather probably would be pretty rough so it should experience a lot of storms, typhoons and large waves. Culture and architecture should reflect this way of life - mangrove forests for Ulsers.

The Kohian government employs ceremonials lions from the West or rather lionettes. Sometimes used in combat but mainly ceremonial, in parades, of which there are many in Kohia. They wear fancy lion armour. Are assigned to lionette troops.

Lord Commander of the Kohian Armed Forces has overly decorated lion armour, or something similar. I guess Kohians treasure their military mediaeval past. Maybe the rise of armour occurred in and around Kohia. Helmets have long flowing sculpted hair.

Lions and lionettes are imported from Dasrodastas for their parades or whatever.

Military steel drums

Language a mix of SE Asia and Star Wars. Guttural too.

Kohian architecture inspired by Winstanley's Eddystone Lighthouse. But in cities, such as Ulsers, they tend to have huge hulking buildings forming a backbone of the city and forming a major hurricane defense. It looks like a combination of the Great Bath, Mohenjo-Daro and that great sandstone structure present in Rogue One and Elepelkin (??). The building in question is probably reddish rock and acacia. Like the Severen courts, most Kohian aristocrats live together in the Chimyodmi. As it always is, it's pretty ancient and the city has grown around it. Designed to funnel wind away. Rural Kohia probably more down-to-earth. Important buildings are inspired by cities or abroad, but the general style comes down to triangle houses. In a range of sizes. Maybe romanesque revival tresses??

The Kohian culture uses vertical writing as well. Kohian soldiers, with their glamourisation of the military, carry flags and banners on their backs in parades and in combat, carrying either the Kohian flag or words of moral support. Kohia has a culture based on violence and honor. It is very shameful to have a weak natural death as the soul takes the form of the dead. Thus, most people commit suicide, the honourable way, around 50 in the past. Naturally, the view has slowly been draining out in exposure to the rest of the world, but there is still martial idolisation and people still commit suicide though at a later age. Strong social pressure against dependents. May or may not be tribalist. Patriarchal and patrilineal but matrilocal.

Shipwreck Park. A large park in the centre of Ulsers, the capital of Kohia, where famous Eastern and Western wrecks fought in the Battle of Aaringoth, were dredged up and displayed alongside exotic plants in commemoration of all who died in the Great War. The grounds are very large, much larger than New York's Central Park. I suppose that its construction required quite a lot of effort technologically and industrially.
