The First Kingdom

Mostly a coastal water place, it is now better known for being poor and somewhat savage in its quest for leather and a rather unkind people. They were dealt a very poor hand earlier in their history.

Geography
Built with a lot of coast around them, water and ship building has become a very important part of their way of life.

Government
Kansen and Jaya are of equal value here and do equal jobs, with Kansen using magic and Jaya using scientific principles. They are ruled by a partnership of Kansen and Jaya, each appointed by their own people. This seems ridiculous and innoble to others.

This partnership is interesting and in sharp contrast to the Third Kindom, for example

Food
They raise and eat Ixaj here - this is seen as savage and brutal. They lack the connection that the Thrid Kingdom does.

Technology
Always about a half step behind their Third Kingdom brethren, but blend tech and magic.

Transportation
A range of animals are used for transportation, although so are many ships. They have since built air transportation but are behind the Third in terms of quality but do build a lot of quantity.

Recreation
The first kingdom is famous for under ground tiger fighting, a vicious and betting sport.

History
Traditionally thought to be where the ancient peoples of the world originated, in the woodlands, gradually differentiating. Many speculate this is where magic came from but the major differentiation seemed to come from those who worked together as families and those who sought magic. There was no war between them: they simply led different life style. These peoples moved and became the other kingdoms.

After a great era where the First Kingdom dominated the world, the Third Kingdom retaliated in great ships with balloons floating above, of all sizes, some even being lit on fire. Ships with control, gunpowder, steering, loomed over the coast line. From behind the smoke and smog and gunpowder, the first ship appeared, spreading on the wings of the world, cannons ringing out into the night. The First Kingdom crumbled.

Misc
The lore of the Third Kingdom and First kingdom differs, with the Third Kingdom dealing with the three peoples in separate but symbiotically linked ways and the First kingdom believing in the dual, interwoven connection between Jaya and Kansen while both harness the power of the ixja: either for food or burden or perhaps magic. Magic and tech are woven together, though in different ands tranger ways than the first kindom. They do not have the three peoples story but tell stoires about the dependence on the '[insert word for a unified but differing] people here'
