Lapaliiya
The city-states along the southeast shore of the Shining Sea together form a league or confederation known as Lapaliiya. The folk of this land are zealous warriors and industrious merchants who place a tremendous value on personal honor and propriety. Duels and feuds over slights that folk of other lands might hardly notice are common.
Each city in the Lapal League takes one deity as its patron, glorifying that faith above all others. Ilmater, Kelemvor, Selune, Talos, and Waukeen are the civic deities of the five largest Lapal cities. Other faiths are actively discouraged in a particular city, and relations between cities tend to mirror the alliances and enmities of the gods themselves.
The Lapal people were formerly a widespread tribal folk who settled a broad swath of territory from the southern coasts of Chult, where the Lapal Sea still bears their name, to the borders of the Shaar. Barbaric and warlike, they harried the frontiers of Calimshan’s great empires until the mage-kings of the Shoon Dynasty conquered and civilized them. The cities are still ruled by satraps claiming descent from the Shoon rulers of old.

The inhabitants of the Lapal League dwell along the southeastern shore of the Shining Sea between Sammaresh and Ormpur. Their territory reaches as far inland as the Mhair Jungles, the Bandit Wastes, and the Dun Hills.
