 ===== Origins =====
-Based on what is known of their language, religion and traditions, they likely originated in central Tarnaria.
+The origins of the Kareden is not completely clear. Contemporaries implied that they came to the region from the south and were originally from Teametian. But there is no documented evidence of this claim, and modern researchers suspect that that might have been loaded language to rationalize campaigns against them at the end of the 19th CSR. Based on their culture, language and religion, they were clearly descendants of peoples from central Tarnaria. After the downfall of the kingdom, Kareden formally became part of Loodon, but most of them have migrated to the Overpol Region and northern Tarnaria. Their trace in history ends after that.
+Kareden did not have a written language and the only texts left after the Kingdom of Mamkoon are mostly biased texts by their enemies. These texts contend that the Kareden were unpopular and feared. They had a strong sense of ethnic identity, and being a true Kareden was the only way to get far in society in Mamkoon.
+===== Appearance =====
+Kareden were described as sturdy people. Not too tall, but not too short either. Dark-haired, adults wore a side braid on the right side. Bright green elements in clothing signified their religious affiliation, which influenced subsequent [[xaewoon#xaewoon_green|Xaewoon Green]] followers across Tarnaria.
-However, they did seem not have a written language and the only texts left after Mamkoon are mostly biased texts by their enemies. These texts contend that the Kareden were unpopular and feared. They had a strong sense of etchnic identity, and being a true Kareden was the only way to get far in society in Mamkoon.
 ===== Religion =====
-Kareden were devotees of a variant of [[Xaewoon]] that postulated a promised land for its people, and the Kareden were on a quest to find the promised land to settle in. Prince Kol was their religious leader, thought to be the Kasanja, the "prophet of far away lands", who has the vision to find Mamkoon, a "promised land".
+Kareden were devotees of the light green stron of [[Xaewoon]] that postulates an actual physical homeland for its people, and the Kareden were on a quest to find this land to settle in. Prince Kol was their religious leader, the Kasanja - the "prophet of far away lands" - who has the vision to find Mamkoon, the "homeland".
+Kareden conquests in Tarnaria won them many possible sites, but those proved to be unsuccessful for various reasons, and they continued to venture north, until in a two-year conquest they have unexpectedly conquered [[Osa Nara]].
+===== Language =====
+Kareden spoke a variant of the [[Jabi]] language. They had no written language and despised the concept. They believed that true knowledge can only be passed from generation to generation, and that written word corrupts knowledge.
+Due to this attitude, they destroyed a lot of libraries across Osa Nara, although after the campaign was over, [[King Anashary]] treated the osanarian culture with indifference, and some libraries were preserved. However, osanarians were ostracized and regarded as inferior due to the fact that they had no true knowledge, as all their knowledge came from books.

+The cultures of peoples that had been enslaved by osanarians were given much better treatment, because osanarians studied their written and oral traditions and preserved in literature. So, the destruction of the many osanarian libraries wiped out vast amount of information about past civilizations.
