All this economic cultural stuff is very grounded in logic and real anthropological information. It's fascinating how much thought and care you put into these people.
You have a very lovely voice. I find the sound of it to be soothing. May I inquire as to what part of the world you come from? I am rubbish at placing accents.
Another interesting group of folks from an equally interesting world! Not gonna lie, I'm pretty darn interested to find out how their interactions with your other civilization will be like given that one is in the magic "infertility zone" applies to one and not the other. I imagine they must find it very odd given how everyone is genetically the same aside from the few outliers that are higher up in the pecking order if I understand correctly.
And that the Basin people are mostly women. Identical women at that. I guess the Foragers think of the basin people as "those weird people with a lot of identical women" and the basin people think the foragers as "those weird people with a lot of different appearances"
Merritt Animation THIS. Not to mention the stuff going on with magic in the area. Kind of makes me wonder if this world ever gets a magic system; how will these two kinds of people be doing with it... 🤔
I'm quite interested at the moment in food staple crops. I've been doing some light research into stuff like wheat, rice, maize, and potatoes, but a world separate from ours likely won't have these crops.
I have created a maize-like crop for this area of my world! I do need a few more staples though. It's fun to think about what people eat and how they cook.
All it made me think of was what kind of weerd subspecies of pig can survive in the mountains, above the tree line! (Because that's nothing like were they live in our world)
Cameo Shadowness, they must also have longer legs too, because all thats needed to contain pigs in our world is a 9" fence, and for pigs to live in mountains, they need more climbing ability.
@@1lobster Or specialized feet (depending on steepness). A blubbery long leged pig.... Or maybe it has special hair instead... Either way it is a funny idea. Maybe there will be multiple varieties. One with extra blubber and one with extra fur. Both with long legs wich could be a huge joke for us but make sense for them.
I'm going to assume the Basin people are scratching their heads right now due to the question of how the hell are they're reproducing without the queens.
Hey, I think I remember you saying that you’re from Poland. I’ll be staying in Krakow in a few days for one night, do you know of anything interesting there to do? Also, great video as always :)
Find out next time! So the ones they trade with are they the same culture, or are the harbor people from elsewhere? And did you used to do voices for spooky podcasts? Your voice sounds familiar sometimes.
They trade with the people from the river basin culture! They are the ones with the sail boats. And no, I've never been involved in spooky podcasts, though I used to co-host the SpiderForest Webcomic Podcast, which was a completely non-spooky show.
Wild pigs in our world tipicly prefer dens forests in colder climates, and dens brush. (tall grass and large bushes, with few trees) what unique adaptations do the pigs that live in the mossy mountains in your word have, that help them live in a climate that is so different from were they live in our world? More fur and longer legs maybe?
I was thinking about this today. I tried looking it up but I couldn’t find any info. Is there a certain population density that means hunting and gathering is no longer viable and a population is basically forced to look towards agriculture?
It depends on the environment. In the North American Northwest Coast, there were whole small towns of sedentary hunter-gatherers, with population densities up to 200 people per square kilometre. They didn't need to turn to agriculture because salmon was just so plentiful. You'd have to figure this one out on a case-by-case basis.
I'm not a native speaker. I know I'm not supposed to pronounce that "g" at the end of words like "long" and just say /loŋ/, but I can't seem to make myself stop doing it. In my native language (Polish), [ŋ] is only ever used as an allophone to /n/ before velar consonants, so I guess my brain just refuses to believe that one could have a [ŋ] in a word without it being followed by a velar consonant.

Thank you for mentioning my cousin Bighorn Sheep.
- your biggest fan, Bighorn Goat 🐐
This is so insanely detailed! Very interesting to listen to
The only thing I dislike about your videos is that they end. ;)
I always wish you kept going.

This was another genius video, the thought and research you put into every one of these videos is mind-blowing :O

I'm from Eastern Europe! My native language is Polish.

This series is just all so informative! It's really fabulous, and one of the best nerdiest things on my youtube feed!

I agree. Worldbuilding can be a rather educational thing, in the form of the research you do when building.
Woah! Didn't expect this but glad I don't sleep until 1230.
Good video and makes me wonder how the families are formed/sustained.

Maybe a SUPER blubbery one. Idk but it's fun to think about.

Cameo Shadowness, or maybe they just fly! LoL
I love this videos so much. They make me think about the many aspects that makes human culture the way it is
The best graphic design in a Worldbuilding channel. Your tables are ever clear and your drawings are so sinthetic and evocative at the same time.
I'm going to assume the Basin people are scratching their heads right now due to the question of how the hell are they're reproducing without the queens.
I can’t wait until my world is this detailed
What a great series!
Great video keep building your world its becoming magnificent
This is excellent! So informative. I'm glad I discovered this channel and I'm going to watch all your stuff!
Can't wait for the next episode!
Your worlds are so intriguing!
I love how meticulous you are. Bottom to top worldbuilding is the hardest type, and you do it masterfully.

I love your channel! Hello, Olá, from Brazil!
Thank god i stayed up until 10:17pm
Wonderful as usual.

They do stick to the grassier/bushier areas. As for adaptations, I'm not sure how much of that would happen in 2000 years.
Casimir III, isn't that what God does? LOL
Worldbuilding Notes, because of there rapid breeding, pigs tend to evolve faster than other specis

0:22 I assume you meant meters, not kilometers?
Whoops! Now that's quite a ridiculous mistake on my part. I did mean metres.
Very nice video nonetheless.
I don't need sleep
What dialect of English is it you speak that you pronounce "ng" (as in "long" or "running") as / ŋg / and not / ŋ /?
I'm not a native speaker. I know I'm not supposed to pronounce that "g" at the end of words like "long" and just say /loŋ/, but I can't seem to make myself stop doing it. In my native language (Polish), [ŋ] is only ever used as an allophone to /n/ before velar consonants, so I guess my brain just refuses to believe that one could have a [ŋ] in a word without it being followed by a velar consonant.
