Mōroh /'mɒrə/ (phonetic respelling: [mo-ra]) is a term denoting a group of five nomadic kingdoms that existed in northern Tarnaria in the beginning of the second revolution, a cultural, religious and political tradition that it spawned, and the identity of those who follow it.

Etymology

"Mōroh" means "palm" or "open hand" in Asdoh. The word was used as a greeting that kings would exchange. The usage declined in the 2nd CSR.

History

The five kingdoms

By the beginning of the second revolution northern Tarnaria was controlled by the state of Toor. A serf uprising, as well as two invasions of the territory led to a series of conflicts known as the Chaos wars. This destroyed Toor and eventually created the five nomadic kingdoms.
