Rálian

'Ralian''' (Lin. "Land of Countless Waters"), the great "Lake-lands" of southeastern Endor stretched east and south from the rolling highlands between the Orocarni and the Orosúli. A variety of reddish-brown-skinned, Ralek-speaking peoples occupied this rich, hilly region. The great river Loralian rose in it's northern highlands.

Cabe was the oldest and wealthiest of Ralian's five tribal realms. It was bounded by the Loralian in the west and the river Kankanan in the east and south. It extended as far north as the upper shores of Clocaban, a lake on the river known as Locaban. Cabe shared it's name with it's chief city, which was in turn named for the Tife Cabian people. Able and sophisticated farmers, they raised wheat, rye, greens, and tubors. Fish comprised the bulk of their meat intake.

The city of Cabe was situated on a grassy hill in the southwestern part of the Tife Cabian claim. Walled with five beautifully-carved palisades built out of laquered ironwood, it was a compact and imposing settlement. It's corduroy streets and multi-leveled bridges connected a broad array of large wooden structures, many of which had survived over two millenia.

Kankanan, the tribal center of the Tife Kankanian folk, lay only forty-miles southwest of Cabe. Situated on the river Kankanan and connected to the Loralian by a broad canal, it was a major river port. It was center of trade and commercial fishing.

Ralian 's other three tribes included the Tife Lenian, the Rale Cuvian, and the Rale Bursian.Tife Lenian lands lay in the far south, below the Clolene, and adjoined Horl lands. Rale Cuivian territory stretched north and east from Clocaban, as far as the shores of the Romenëar. It was the largest of Ralian's five realms. The next largest, the Rale Bursian claim, was in the north and northwest.
