Acahualla is a largely tropical district in Sargon.
Background[]

A full map of the Acahuallan jungle, including its coastlines along the inland sea.
Located to the east of the Sargonian dunes, the dense tropical jungles of Acahualla is inhabited by Archosaurians, Liberi and Pythia who, regardless of races, prefer to use "Tiacauh"[note 1] when referring to themselves. Due to their isolationism from the outside world as well as Sargon's expansionism and absorption of other regions, the inhabitants possess a distinct culture from the desert clans in mainland Sargon and a primitive lifestyle far from the marvels of the Terran civilization. They believe in the philosophy of "might makes right" in which, humorously, includes whether an Archosauria's tail should be thick or thin.[1]
Centuries ago, Acahualla was home to a thriving Sargonian mining colony centered in a nomadic city. However, a Catastrophe forced the nomadic city to leave and caused the iron mines to be overrun with Originium. Some of the colonists were left behind while others later returned to Acahualla and settled in the jungle who later became the ancestors of the Acahuallans. Ten years ago, the Sargonian lords considered relocating some of their current-generation nomadic cities into Acahualla to reactivate the iron mines. Sadly, they were forced to abandon the plan after the initial survey results suggesting that the area does not have much economic and strategic value.[2] As a matter of fact, Acahualla has been ignored for years and there is no official military sent by any Padishah or Ameer. Even Acahualla itself is under Sargon by name only.[3]
The Acahuallans are divided into various tribes, with the following as the most notable:
Despite the division and inner conflicts, the Acahuallans are united under the helm of a Great Chief traditionally elected from tribal representatives in the "Mahuizzotia"[note 2] ceremony. Originated from a Tiacauh Brave who wished to give himself a title, it is held in an ancient temple in the middle of Acahualla and is organized in a tournament-like form.[4] Although the ceremony seems to be a "duel," the representatives are allowed to bring reinforcements and even use any weapons they wish in the match, making it more of a brawl.
During the Zeruertza incident in which a mass population of Durins needed to flee from an encroaching giant Originium vein underground, the Acahuallans warmly welcomed the refugees. However, it could post a potential political threat as Acahualla might be invaded by other Padishahs due to the sudden presence of the Durins. Fortunately, Inam became the nominal Lord Ameer of the district and settled the issue with the royal court peacefully. Even other Padishahs have no interest on Achualla in reality thanks to the locals' covering up of the incident.[5] As a matter of fact, the district is currently undergoing an unimaginable development for the first time as the local Durins introduce their latest technologies to the Acahuallans.
