This page serves to document the community-created culture for a fictional Toaq country (Toaqgua).
Geography
Toaqgua ("Toaqland") is located somewhere within Southeast Asia.
Lanao is the biggest city and business capital, located at the mouth of the Chuaılo River. The second-largest is Saqmeı ("Three Mountains"). Kuaoce ("Cyanport") is the administrative capital but it's much smaller.
Rituals and Traditions
Every 22nd of April, the people of Toaqgua light paper lanterns and float them down a river to celebrate the joys of life and celebrate memories shared with loved ones. Food festivals can be found all across Toaqgua at this time, with many families choosing to share their regional cuisines or passed down recipes.
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.
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".
