THe Šìma are a collection of tribes of Khulls ancestry that live in the Poswob Empire. They are stereotytpically associated with bananas, despite living in temperatre climates with no easy access to the tropics.
Language
The Sima language is very conservative compared to its relatives. The phonology of Khulls was highly unstable, and unlike Moonshine, Ogili, Sarapios, etc, which all changed it rapidly into something completely different, the basic topple-prone structure of both the vowels and consonants is mostly intact in Sima. However, the inventories are noticeably smaller. There are no labialized consonants, no ejective consonants, no long vowels, no pharyngealized vowels, and no new phonemes of any kind.
