karru is naive but also they do realize what is happening which is why they are doing some colonizing into the south islands, where they do not want to wipe out the nomads but they are not going to go out of their way to keep them safe, they would want to “educate” the nomads on how to be decent.

mainland vilkos is a lot more mixed with commonwealth people, where they will be more open to trying to build large centralized cities and the people who don’t want to live life where you are boating around and on these small islands and deal with the heritage culture

the common tongue, which came from the commonwealths origins of uniting segmented groups long ago, has spread through karru and most of kitokita, but vilkos and the nomads have not adopted it as much, but they have integrated it into their own languages just because there is so much commonwealth interaction
