every culture has their ethnic donut and every culture has their ethnic dumpling… humans be frying dough
Every culture also makes a sword. If they got metal they make a sword, if they don’t have metal they take obsidian or shark teeth or whatever it is that they’ve got and they make that into a sword.
Coincidence? I think not.
2 constants in all civilizations:
- Tasty Fried Food
- Danger Murder Sticks
World building tip: the bare bones of all civilizations are fried dough and sharp things.
Also: dramatic and ornate hats.
as soon as people have the resources to do so they will put gaudy brightly-coloured things on their heads, so help them
Fried dough, murder sticks, and ostentatious headwear. I like it.
