Throughout the whole nightmare which were The Mkabian Civil Wars, as historians will moniker them anytime soon, competitive sports never completely died down. Being it in soldier training or refugee camps, one always could find children and adults chasing a ball or measuring themselves against one another in speed and strength. In times of relative quiet, some cities and even larger regions managed to pit the best amongst them against one another, ensuring quite a name for some in the process. But never in the last twenty years, opponents could cross the small save pocket of their homes to compete across the nation in peace and confidence. It is aspired that now, in the early spring of 2020, this at last comes to an end.
As it is often observed throughout the multiverse, the most infamous of sports is football and Mkabia is no stranger to that. Across the land, one can find makeshift goalposts and youngsters showcasing their technical skills. Throughout the dry season, which runs practically from October till May, it is the key practised sport. In their shadow, two others have an established following, being rugby in the south and west - the coastal regions, in short - at the one hand and baseball in the north and the landlocked parts of the east. When the torrential rains come, and refuse to stop for four months, their popularity gets replaced by basketball, which gets practised indoors. Its following suffered the most from the war, but seems to return in full force. Apart from these team sports, there is a nationwide interest in boxing, cycling and athletics, whilst some regions and/or social strata seem keen for rowing, tennis and lutte, a local form of wrestling.
