The Segregation

The Segregation is a conflict in the Fãngra Queendom between the northern (Tõnga) and southern regions (Fẽma).

Legacy
The two sides signed a treaty, promising to not fight each other anytime soon and never harm the capital due to its spiritual value.

The Great Famine
The Great Famine emerged around the time of The Segregation, during which most people from Kolola were unable to get crops from the countryside and died from hunger, despite the fact that the city was unharmed due to its heavy spiritual and historical value. Along with the hunger, which was resolved by trading with the Läptälm people, an epidemic broke out which led to several deaths. Once The Great Famine was over, there was a migration from the surrounding towns to the centre for acquisition of the food originating from the trade with the Läptälm people.

Linguistic
After The Segregation, the standard variety was considered too formal, only being used in literature, and barely spoken outside of Kolola and the villages surrounding it by the few residents left. The central dialect, that was the basis of the standard, retained similarities to the old form. However, it was still considered a new, different language.

Literature
A new movement in literature emerged in the North. Given that, unlike the South, that was quite conservative, the authors from northern cities were more open to new ideas, they started to express them. The poems and myths were reduced in quantity, while educational texts increased.

In the South, the old, standard language was used to write religious texts. There were still a few great poems in their native dialect, along with other texts, such as formal legal documents, written to be understood by everyone.

However, after a few centuries, the spiritual movement started in Southern Fãngra, as well, introducing new ideas and great pieces of literature. Schools started being built, even in rural areas. As a result, education was provided to everyone. In fact, the state began to be democratised. Books were then published by anyone who wished to write one.

Political
Although the South began to support democracy and free speech, the Northern State would advocate an ideology which consisted of hatred towards homosexuality and the female sex. Meanwhile, phallocracy was enforced and its greatness of the first centuries began to fall. Their acceptance of certain democratic ideas, soon, altered into sentiments of strong aversion and a Dark Age set forth.
