BRIEF PRE-GAME HISTORY
The ancestors of today's Dolgavans were the ancient Likatonic peoples, who colonized the area around 2000 BCE. Dolgava, like the rest of the continent, was populated and ruled by a number of tribes, until it was conquered and colonized by Deltarians in the 18th century. Deltarians brought Hosianism and influenced the Dolgavan language and culture, thus the current cultural makeup of Dolgava is represented a continuation of the ancient Dolgavan culture with heavy Deltarian influence.

CULTURE
Dolgavan culture is based on RL Baltic nations, primarily Latvia and Estonia, with a certain degree of generic Eastern European influences, due to the proximity to Trigunia and Kizenia and historical Deltarian influence. There is also a large degree of Germanic cultural influence, mostly due to the presence of Hulstrian nobility.
