(Not as good as the Ainu. Oh well)


Java Civilization Plan
Java (Indonesian, Javanese, and Sundanese: Jawa) is an island of Indonesia, and the site of its capital city, Jakarta. It is the most populous island in the world; indeed, it has a larger population than either the continents of Australia or Antarctica (see the list of islands by population). With an area of 132,000 square km, 127 million inhabitants and 864 people per km² it would, if it were a country, be the second most densely-populated country of the world after Bangladesh, except for some very small city-states.

History
Much evidence of Java's past kingdoms remains; such as the famous Buddhist Borobudur and Hindu Prambanan temples. Indeed, the Javanese culture, and language itself, was heavily influenced by the cultures and languages of the Indian subcontinent. In the sixth and seventh centuries, many maritime kingdoms arose in Sumatra and Java, which controlled the waters in the Straits of Malacca, and flourished with the increasing sea-trade between China and India and beyond. During this time, scholars from India and China visited these kingdoms to translate literary and religious texts.


Mythology
Heroes
The Java hero is the Pedanda, which is a priest. Pedanda can heal allies and attack enemies. All of your Pedanda become Snaketongues (powerful dark priests) in the Mythic Age if your worship Dewi Nagini. Also, each minor god grants you a different hero you can use.

Favor
The Java gather favor by commisoning Scholars to create Works of Art. The art costs different amount, depending on what type of art it is. Poems are 5 G, Songs are 10 G, Paintings are 20 G, and Puppets are 25 G. The more expensive a Piece of Art, the more favor is earned. Once the art is produced, it has to be garrisoned in a temple to gain favor. Temples can hold infinite amounts of Art.
