This page serves to document the community-created culture for a fictional Toaq country (Toaqgua).
Geography
Toaqgua ("Toaq Country") is located somewhere within Southeast Asia.
Lanao is the biggest city and business capital, second-largest being Saqmeı ("Three Mountains"). Kuaoce ("Cyanport") is the administrative capital but it's much smaller.
Rituals and Traditions
Every [sometime in April], the people of Toaqgua light paper lanterns [to celebrate what?].
Mythology
The ancient people of Toaqgua believed in Jemu, Toaq's whale-moth hybrid legendary creature and mascot, who brings good luck and provides strength to those who need it.
Toaq mythology also has a scary spider-horse creature named Eranu that brings bad omens to those who encounter it, symbolizing the inevitability of death.
Food
Cıereıtaq (literally "fish roll") is a dish made of tilapia, carrots, and cabbage wrapped in a light rice paper, served with a sweet durian-based sauce.
Saıram is a stew comprising “braised beef, carrots, chillies, cilantro, wine”. Its name may derive from seaı "alcohol" or saı "stuff" (ingredients) or caı "strong", and the frequentative prefix ram- as in rạmloeq "to simmer".
