Strahan is a rural backwater on the north-western borders of the [[Cagilan Empire]], not affected by proximity to any cities or river trade-routes. The peasants of Strahan mostly grow grain, which feeds the demand from Calis and Cagil to the south. In the north of the region, the climate grows hotter and the soil grows rockier and less fertile. The north is also where Strahan's only forested areas can be found. Because the northerners are poorer and able to conceal themselves in these woods, in times of unrest it is always the north of Strahan which is most rebellious. | Strahan is a rural backwater on the north-western borders of the [[Cagilan Empire]], not affected by proximity to any cities or river trade-routes.

Please consider using Template:Infobox RegionData instead, which automatically fetches the relevant and always-correct data from the game engine itself. Use this template for historical pages where the region data is no longer available (e.g. the sunk south islands).
To convert, use the "image" property - the first number is the world-id, the second the region-id.

Strahan is a rural backwater on the north-western borders of the Cagilan Empire, not affected by proximity to any cities or river trade-routes. The peasants of Strahan mostly grow grain, which feeds the demand from Calis and Cagil to the south. In the north of the region, the climate grows hotter and the soil grows rockier and less fertile. The north is also where Strahan's only forested areas can be found. Because the northerners are poorer and able to conceal themselves in these woods, in times of unrest it is always the north of Strahan which is most rebellious.
Strahan's settlements are limited to hamlets and a scattering of larger villages. Living in small communities with few visitors, the commoners are reserved and taciturn to strangers, although they are prepared to laugh and carouse with those they trust. The only unique local culture of note is the Harvest Cycle, a set of ballads in a rhythm which matches the movements of the harvesters cutting and collecting the crop. Each harvest season, every village appoints one elder who has learned the whole Cycle to recite it. The Ballads are a mixture of local myths and proverbs, and the exact content changes from village to village and from recital to recital. No one has, as yet, attempted to write the Cycle down.
The local lord's mansion and its connected estate are located on the southern edge of the forested area, so that he or she can enjoy hunting the forest's deer and boar.
Strahan is home to a Primitive Temple of The Order.
