Religion

The inhabitants of Drevnedub worship Svarog, just like the rest of Triman, however they also worship some of the angels and holy men that walked the earth after Svarog. Each of these Elders of the province is considered to be able to take the shape of an animal and still sometimes walk the earth in that shape, looking at how men act towards each other. The current kniaz of Drevnedub is supposedly descending from such a shapeshifter: Misha, who was able to take the shape of a big bear and guarded the people from the wolf-people in the north and the raiders in the south before people started to live in cities. Although illegal by the Tzars law, the kniaz has not only not persecuted these beliefs, but actively encouraged this worship. Drevnedub fought against tsar Vsevolod the Cruels campaign against the beggar knights.
