Salino is an oligarchy which stretches from central to southern Toltecan along the southern flank of the volcanically active Toltekanian Divide mountain range. Salino's capital is Granayo, a hub of trade and culture located in the coastal region. Industries vary by region, with tourism, fishing, and mineral extraction being some of Salino's most important sectors. Salino is highly involved in trading with most of Toltecan's countries due to its large size and favorable location.
Regiões / Regions
Tasagua AgroMineral Commune
The western end of Salino is dominated by the twin cities of Cozumel and Dotana, which lie at the foot of the Toltekanian Divide mountains. The oligarchs of Cozumel control the manufacturing sector while the oligarchs of Dotana control the agricultural sector, as well as having significant influence over the fishing sector. They have formed an alliance that gives them almost de facto control of all production in the country, which often allows them to disregard the laws and decrees coming from the capital. Both cities are powered by aging nuclear power stations.
Capital Zone
The enfeebled capital zone consists of aging oligarchs from the early days of the republic, when vegetables and fruits were in short supply and they could build a small regional empire providing food and fertilizer to the masses to buy their loyalty. However, as the oligarches to the west united and grew in power, the capital region lost influence. It remains influential due to its historic connection to ancient Toltekanians, but the people are growing wary of constant nostalgia instead of powerful governance.
Toltekan Cultural Zone
Home of the ancient Toltekanians, from which the continent gets its name and from which all indigenous culture on the continent derives, this region is hallowed ground. People from all across the continent make pilgrimages to the ruins in this region to pay tribute to their unified heritage. This has allowed the local oligarchs to amass a significant amount of power from all the in-flowing tourist and pilgrim cash. A quasi-religious faction residing in the far regions of the mountains, however, is furious about the exploitation of ancient heritage and has been bombing and destroying ruins, believing that some things are meant to be lost to history and memory.
Pochomal Southern
The far eastern region of Salino consists of rugged mountains, resulting in poor infrastructure and connection to the rest of Salino and, indeed, the world. Indigenous and disaffected young adults alike reside in this region, engaging in heritage and subsistence farming and mining, far from the reach of oligarchs and the feeble central government.

Salino foi o lar dos antigos Toltekanianos, sendo o local de origem de toda a cultura indígena do continente, então, sua bandeira é formada pelas cores primárias (azul, vermelho e amarelo) a fim de simbolizar a descendência com os primeiros povos. Ademais, a caveira é outro símbolo que remete a ancestralidade da cultura Tolteka. E por fim, ela está dividida em três partes para ilustrar as regiões de destaque de Salino, ou seja, o setor azul representa o ocidente do país, com fortes influências das cidades de Cozumel e Dotana; o vermelho mostra a região de Pochomal, ao sul; o setor preto refere à capital, Granayo, e as faixas amarelas servem para demonstrar a riqueza do país
[EN]: Salino was home of the ancient Toltekanians, being the place of origin of all the indigenous culture of the continent, so its flag is formed by the primary colors (blue, red and yellow) in order to symbolize the descent with the first cultures. In addition, the skull is another symbol that refers to the ancestry of the Tolteka culture. Finally, it is divided into three parts to illustrate Salino's prominent regions, that is, the blue sector represents the west of the country, with strong influences from the cities of Cozumel and Dotana; red shows the Pochomal region to the south; the black sector refers to the capital, Granayo, and the yellow bands serve to demonstrate the country's wealth.
Salino é um país que tentou manter tradições da cultura tolteca, porém com o passar dos anos, essas tradições foram se dissipando.
A cultura tolteca advém do povo tolteca, que são os povos originários da região hoje que se compreende como Salino. Sua cultura é baseada no ciclo da vida, onde celebra-se não somente a vida, mas a morte também, onde a passagem aqui na terra é apenas um caminho para o bem maior, que é alcançado após a morte. A mulher, para os toltecas, é a base para todo o funcionamento do mundo, sendo aquela que dá luz para todos os conhecimentos que serão adquiridos ao decorrer da vida, assim como a deusa de sua religião, a deusa do Sol.
Os cidadãos de Salino, assim como os toltecas, valorizam muito a vida, pois é através da vida e seus desafios, que são obtidos os conhecimentos, tendo uma forte ligação com a natureza, que nutre a sociedade, e os auxilia na jornada que eles precisam percorrer. Tendo em vista que estão em uma área com presença de vulcanismo ativo, os salinenses reconhecem a potência da natureza e têm como filosofia tradicional buscar um convívio mais harmonioso com essa.
Infelizmente, em Salino, a cultura não é mais a mesma dos povos originários, na maior parte do país, porém com a ajuda dos povos que hoje habitam o lar dos antigos toltecas, estamos em busca de resgatar nossas origens, através da popularização da cultura e costumes, para todos os países.
[EN]: Salino is a country that tried to maintain traditions of the Toltekan culture, but over the years, these traditions have been dissipatin.
The Toltekan culture comes from the Toltekanians, who are the original peoples of the region that today is understood as Salino. Their culture is based on the cycle of life, where not only life is celebrated, but death as well, where the passage here on earth is just a path to the greater good, which is achieved after death. The woman, for the Toltecs, is the basis for all the functioning of the world, being the one who gives light to all the knowledge that will be acquired throughout life, as well as the goddess of their religion, the goddess of the Sun.
The citizens of Salino, as well as the Toltekanians, highly value life, as it is through life and its challenges that knowledge is obtained, having a strong connection with nature, which nourishes society, and assists them in the journey they need to go through. Considering that they are in an area with active volcanism, the people of Salin recognize the power of nature and their traditional philosophy is to seek a more harmonious coexistence with it. Unfortunately, in most parts of Salino, the culture is no longer the same as that of the native peoples, but with the help and interest of the population that today inhabit the home of the ancient Toltekanins, we are looking to rescue our origins, through the popularization of culture. and customs, for all countries.
