[QUOTE="nevin, post: 8137926, member: 7024481"] Chestnut trees are everywhere and a good source of carbohydrates and they feed the wildlife. nutritional profile similar to potatoes. Chestnut trees are huge, grow fast and are hard wood so good hardwood with a profile similar to oak is readily available. Hospitality for the Scots and Scott-irish would be very much the once I invite you into my house i'm responsible for you. But you better behave. Respect for individualism would be important among them as well. they would be proud Brave , and willing to die to protect family and Honor. The english settlers would be in more typical towns and cities with forts scattered throughout the area, with either english or american troops depending on the time frame. If it's fantasy that's where it could get really interesting. do the Celtic gods exist? Cause the border tribes of scotland weren't that into Christian religion, that's part of what did them in. But if they have the old religions you get druids , is there a catholic church and are they burning witches and mages? If so a lot of mages might be living with hill folk or indians. Indians of that area, Choctow, chickasaw, Cherokee, were fairly civilized they farmed , hunted and generally got along people that wanted to get along with them. If thier gods exist and they have shaman's and mages who would probably be looked on as people who had been blessed by the gods, they might be holding on better than they did in real history. there is no one african culture so I'd recommend looking at West Africa as a lot of the slaving was done there. Pick out a couple of the tribes who's religion and myths you like and work them in. The fey side would be a horrible mixed up mess, with African spirits, indian fey who are often confused as spirits of the land, fey brought by the english, scotts and irish. You'd probably have as much conflict on the fey side of things as in the real world. [/QUOTE]
