Population and culture Edit

Inhabited by the Hyrkanian race — dark and generally tall and slender.

Between the inland sea and the eastern borders of the native western kingdoms lie vast expanses of steppes and in the extreme north and extreme south, deserts.

Noted for bandits. Powerful Turanian bow kills at five hundred paces.

Women wear veils. Silk is very common here, and it is worn by all classes of people from nobles and soldiers to commoners and slaves.

Slavery is very common in Turan. Some of the largest slave markets in all the world exist here.
