The Kabylonian Empire is an empire of blood thirsty expansionists who have conquered and subjected many peoples of many cultural groups.
Part one culture.
Before the Kabylonians became warmongers they were originally peaceful innovators and lawmakers. But then the Kabylonian's city state of Kabylon, which was located on the Kumer river, was conquered by the Cassyrians. Over the centuries the Cassyrian rule slowly turned the Kabylonians into a harden, belligerent, ruthless, warlike and predatory people that grew to believe that only the strong should rule while the weak either perishes or serves the strong and that might makes right. Eventually the Kabylonians under Merodach Hanbi rose up in rebellion not out of the desire for freedom but because the Cassyrians became weak and stagnant and so the Kabylonians would kill half of the Cassyrians while enslaving the other half. then the Kabylonians formed the Kabylonian empire with Merodach as emperor.
The Kabylonian culture is somewhat similar to the Babylonians albeit warmongering, expansionist, imperialistic and bloodthirsty.
The Kabylonians wear clothing similar to the Babylonians. Kabylonian have beards similar to Babylonian beards and have hairs similar to the African lions's hair.
The Kabylonians are experts astronomers and have mapped out the many constellations in the sky and use them in the application of mathematics to the variation in the length of daylight over a solar year. Centuries of Kabylonian observations of celestial phenomena are recorded in the series script tablets.
The Kabylonians have a cuneiform form of writing, the subjugated people also adopted the cuneiform as well, mostly because the Kabylonians forced them to.
In Kabylonian culture morality is a weakness that only the weak embrace.
To the Kabylonians, a defeat in battle is viewed as disgrace and a sign of weakness.
The Kabylonians force their cultural and religious beliefs on conquered subjects except for the Aleaqrab as elite warriors and assassins for the Kabylonian empire and so are given special privileges that allow them to maintain their own cultural and religious beliefs while having autonomy within the Kabylonian empire.
The Kabylonian have gladiatorial arenas where gladiators fight to the death for the amusement of the Kabylonians.
The Kabylonians are ultranationalists believing that they are the mightiest species in the world therefore in their eyes most of the other species in the world were feeble parasites that fed on the bounty of the world. With a few exceptions to some species like the Valkyries.
The Kabylonians are an untrustworthy people who rarely uphold their word and when they do uphold their word it's because it's a threat.
The Kabylonians have a special tax on the subjugated peoples which they have to give their blood to the Kabylonians who use blood to add flavor to their food and drinks.
