The empire of Kxesh has had many names throughout its history, as it has had many languages.
The native tribespeople were dark-skinned and similar in appearance to the Stars; the Kxels and the Stars nevertheless agreed where their tribal boundaries were, and there were no mixed groups; everyone was either a Star or a Kxel (in some contexts the Kxels were called Swords).
Language
There has never been a single official language in Kxesh. Languages are distantly related to those of Baeba, but when united as an empire, the Kxeshians tended to use foreign languages rather than those of their own homelands.
In 3141, Lenians of the Subumpamese tribes settled Kxesh and smothered all of the aboriginal languages, making FILTER the official language of all of Kxesh.
Geography and climate
Kxesh today stretches from about 12°N to 22°N, with the population density being greatest in the central area. In the south, the climate is a tropical rainforest, and rainfall decreases moving north, soon becoming a true desert. Even so, most of the population lives in the desert because rivers flowing from the mountains supply them with water and the land is most free of obstructions here.
Demographics
Contact with Dreamland
Many Swords moved to Dreamland to get away from the politics of their host empire. They moved mostly into the Sessi zone, which was geographically closest.
