Kingdom of Nri
The Nri people of Igbo land have a creation myth which is one of the many creation myths that exist in various parts of Igbo land. The Nri and Aguleri people are in the territory of the Umueri clan who trace their lineages back to the patriarchal king-figure Eri.Eri's origins are unclear, though he has been described as a "sky being" sent by Chukwu (God). He has been characterized as having first given societal order to the people of Anambra. The historian Elizabeth Allo Isichei says "Nri and Aguleri and part of the Umueri clan, [are] a cluster of Igbo village groups which traces its origins to a sky being called Eri."
Archaeological evidence suggests that Nri influence in Igboland may go back as far as the 9th century, and royal burials at the Igbo-Ukwu sites have been unearthed dating to at least the 10th century. Eri, the god-like founder of Nri, is believed to have settled the region around 948 with other related Igbo cultures following after in the 13th century. The first Eze Nri (King of Nri) Ìfikuánim followed directly after him. According to Igbo oral tradition, his reign started in 1043. At least one historian puts Ìfikuánim's reign much later, around 1225 AD:
Each king traces his origin back to the founding ancestor, Eri. Each king is a ritual reproduction of Eri. The initiation rite of a new king shows that the ritual process of becoming Eze Nri (Nri priest-king) follows closely the path traced by the hero in establishing the Nri kingdom.

The Kingdom of Nri was a religio-polity, a sort of theocratic state, that developed in the central heartland of the Igbo region. The Nri had seven types of taboos which included human (such as the birth of twins), animal (such as killing or eating of pythons), object, temporal, behavioral, speech and place taboos. The rules regarding these taboos were used to educate and govern Nri's subjects. This meant that, while certain Igbo may have lived under different formal administration, all followers of the Igbo religion had to abide by the rules of the faith and obey its representative on earth, the Eze Nri

FINALLY IVE FINISHED THEM! So a bit ago I had a thought for my postcanon Danganronpa universe for thh and sdr2 where I wanted to fit in the v3 characters somehow despite them being in a separate timeline where DR is fake. So what I’ve come up with is essentially a “steel ball run universe” scenario where they’re technically the same characters but also completely different and now my own ocs!!
Meet Komaeda���s students at Newdawn Academy!! After the Tragedy and the fall of Future Foundation, the nations of the world got together to form a new group (Operation Newdawn) dedicated to rebuilding society after the apocalypse. The academy is not only a school for kids displaced by despair, but also works to cultivate skill and nurture talent naturally in a healthy way so they can go out and do their part to rebuild when they graduate.
However. a lot of these kids have a lot of trauma and their own issues and are at Newdawn because they didn’t have anywhere else to go/they’re considered “problem children.” This is where Nagito comes in. He knows what it’s like and he has experience with kids that need help, and he wanted to do something good after Everything that happened. So he’s followed in Chisa’s footsteps and become a teacher! The students love him and k1-b0 is an excellent therapy ai that’s also helping the kids do their best. I love them so dearly.
