The Gold Empire was created by Khulls speakers soon after the breakup of their nation. Though their territory was already huge, the population was sparse and militarily weak. Even Poswobs were a danger to the eastern border areas [1]
Language
Phonology
The languiage is similar to Khulls but somewhat simpler. There is only one labialized series instead of two, and /r/ has changed to /n/ unconditionally. Thus the consonant inventory is:
- /pʷ bʷ fʷ vʷ p b m t d n s z l č ǯ š ž j k ġ x g h ʕ/.
Vowels are the same as Khulls, although /o/ and /u/ were becoming less rounded when not next to labialized consonants, and this became phonemoic towards the end of the Empire. Additionally, an epenthetic /u/ had appeared before sllabic consonants.
Tones are the same except the sandhi has coalesced into phonemic tone, and the á and ā tones have merged.
Geography and demographgics
The Gold Empire was strung out along the west coast of Rilola, resembling Europe and Africa combined, but without extewnding very far inland. Their empire was in somne ways like a human body: long and narrow ,with limbs spreading out from the center, soft evewrywhere, and with the heart not far from the edges. This allowed lots of points of entry for invaders. In fact, basically every point of the empire was having a hard time just protecting itself from injury. Even the Poswobs, who were about as sharp as a blown-up balloon, were able to win control of much of the Empire for about 200 years.
Notes
- ↑ Though they did not call themselves Poswobs yet, for the sake of histroical contuity, they are genrally called Poswobs.
