Good call.

Lzherusskia - Chess.

In approximate order of popularity, the ten most followed sports in the nation are chess, ice hockey, kickboxing, association football, mixed martial arts, gridiron football, judo, baseball, taekwondo and basketball. There is quite obviously a huge tradition of combat sports in Lzherusskia and athletic prowess is prized, but chess is loved above all else and the nation's top players are lauded as absolute superstars.

Social Attitude Test
Progressivism = 67.5
Socialism = 87.5
Tenderness = 34.375
Your test scores indicate that you are a tough-minded progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a journalist. It appears that you are distrustful towards religion, and have a pragmatic attitude towards humanity in general.

Your attitudes towards economics appear socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a humanist.

To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a considerate realistic egalitarian with several strong convictions.

This concludes our analysis; we hope you found your results accurate, useful, and interesting.

I am very proud of my conlang and will use it profusely.

I speak English fluently, a lot of French, and a bit of German and Spanish.

Tanovart is a more leftist version of my beliefs. Also I have absolutely no idea why my economy is so horrible.

The language is called "Travonatian" which is Tanovart backwards plus -ian. It's...complicated.

Serretes-- Buzkashi
Buzkashi is a very violent game played on horseback. In Serretes, two teams of 13 players each ride horses at each other. Each rider has a short spear, 5 feet long, and has a needle like point. The object of the game is to drag a goat carcass into a ring at either end of the field using the spear. It must be placed inside the ring of your own team to gain a point. Almost anything is legal, short of killing.
Sansa Stark is the best Game of Thrones character, closely followed by Theon Greyjoy.

"Serretes, we're not renting you a prostitute!" :p
