Biome map of the Kyanah homeworld! https://i.imgur.com/HJOBj0W.png Descriptions of the biomes. Note that ocean biomes are not present, over 90% of the planet would be desert by Terran precipitation standards, but plant life has adapted to this in various ways, so greenery is more prevalent than one ...

Re: Road to Hope
As was (maybe) previously stated, Kyanah don't have distinct languages with specific labels, yet this does not mean that they all share a common language. The vernacular tends to differ slightly from city-state to city-state; in the next city-state over, there might only be a few small spelling and ...

Re: Road to Hope
I'm just imagining people and Kyanah coexisting on Earth and eventually becoming part of the same society. I'm actually drafting a post on this. Eventually one day, Ikun's inhabitants see some sort of rocket land, with strange organisms in suits exiting alongside some Kyanah- who have come home for...

Re: Road to Hope
Some of the city-states! As previously mentioned, there is no exact count of the number of Kyanah city-states, but there is an exact count of Coalition of Cities members. Of these, the breakdown as of Y976 is 283 tier 1 cities, 1469 tier 2 cities, 1195 tier 3 cities, and 460 tier 4 cities. Tier 1 is...

Re: Road to Hope
Finally, after eight years, a definitive map of the Kyanah homeworld. No more vague handwaving and here-be-dragons nonsense. https://i.imgur.com/FhoQbk0.png ( Here's another version without the regions labeled) In red are the impact ranges, the equivalent to mountain ranges since they have no tecton...

Re: Road to Hope
The Kyanah do not have a world government like so many stereotypical alien civilizations, nor even large nation-states like Earth. The vast majority of the Kyanah population live inside city-states instead. This arises from the fact that Kyanah by nature distrust centralization, deep hierarchies, an...
