Active contributors list

New active contributors should add themselves here. You can state what tasks you want to take over in the near future.

Todo for contributors

  • In general, conlangs and names should avoid words that sound like
    • profanities in common Earth languages
    • racial etc. slurs
    • names of infamously destructive hurricanes (e.g. "Katrina" or "Harvey")
  • Find some microtonalist types
  • Find a domain to host a dedicated wiki on
  • Global warming might force people to migrate - main driver of linguistic change in the beginning of postmodern Tricin?
  • Trician architecture?
  • Draw the map
  • A Tricin manga series?

Star system

Tricin is the second of 7 planets orbiting a G-type main sequence star, called grian in Clofabosin and að Wnd in Eevo.

Planet names in Clofabosin:

  • spitin - terrestrial
  • tricin - terrestrial
    • Satellite: porfin
  • alatin - terrestrial
  • fricodin - super-Earth
  • sterocitin - gas giant
  • tarofudin - gas giant
  • clifarin - ice giant

Planetary characteristics

1 HM year = 381.3668618 Earth days = 357.0806527870906 HM days = 1.04410737342 Earth years

1 HM day = 25.6323176 hours

357 days = 51 7-day weeks

Leap day every 12.3988275678 years

months: 30 30 30 29 30 30 30 29 30 30 30 29(30)

Leap year every 12 except when the year is divisible by 372. If the year is divisible by 130944=352*372 it's a leap year.

so the years 270, 520, 790, X40, 10E0, 1360, 1610, 1880, ... are not leap years

Calendar

The following describes the Etalocian calendar, which is now a global standard across Tricin.

Year 0 marks the founding of the Netagin Republic (about 1500-2000 years BP). Negative years are written with a minus sign.

Months in Clofabosin:

  • talaporfin
  • uneporfin
  • verteporfin
  • rostaporfin
  • exeporfin
  • avidoporfin
  • temoporfin
  • padeliporfin
  • padoporfin
  • stannsoporfin
  • lemuteporfin
  • rufiporfin

There is a seven-day week. The names of the days of the week in Clofabosin are:

  • domorelin
  • remorelin
  • mimorelin
  • famorelin
  • solmorelin
  • lamorelin
  • timorelin

Geography

30% of Tricin's surface is land (i.e. not covered by water).

Continents (Areas are ballpark estimates):

Other areas:

Prehistory

  • Long period of glaciation like in our world.

Languages

Major languages

Language families

In-universe conlangs

Programming languages

  • Verbose language with Clofabosin keywords (Java + Python hybrid)

"if X": X sartan (sartan = "case, condition")

"for i in range(1,10)": (1,10) apidan gaptan i ibat (gloss: "(1,10) range member i DISTRIBUTIVE")

"while X": X otetan (otetan = "period of time")

  • Functional language
  • C analogue

Religions, mysticism and philosophy

  • Second Mover = we humans are responsible for "creation" and formulating rules, where "God has left off", even when no one is telling us what to do
    • The Second Mover principle admits multiple different interpretations. Some people think it says too much, some people think it says nothing at all. Especially by political progressives, the Second Mover is generally seen as the force of progress - be it scientific or social/moral progress
  • Naquian paganism - develops into science fiction!
  • Clofabian paganism
  • A more universalistic religion (in the same general cluster as Christianity or Mahayana Buddhism)
    • Perhaps the former multiple gods coalesce into one God - instead of elimination of other gods in favor of one of them
    • A person goes to a (potentially infinite?) chain of purgatories after they die - one's karma increases or reduces time served in purgatories
    • Heaven exists, "hell" is when a soul spends indefinite time in purgatories
    • People drawing up graphs/trees of afterlives lol
      • This turns into various board games
    • Question: "Assume that there is a God whom we trust and want to get messages from. When can you trust someone who claims to be God?"
      • This leads to discussions of computer security protocols before computers were invented
      • "God's Public Key" = either a satirical TV show episode, a short story or a song
    • I could just copy Buddhism

Folk religion

Organized theism is rare in Tricin; theism is more predominant in folk religion. A Trician might just make up any patron god they want.

People

Surnames are bolded.

Modern
