Baklunish, or "Bakluni," is generally used in reference to the Baklunish people, a race of humans living in the Flanaess (as well as regions of Oerik further west), though the term may also refer to the language and culture of said people.
They are the descendants of the human inhabitants of the ancient Baklunish Empire. While the majority of humans in the Flanaess have mixed ancestry, people of direct Baklunish descent can chiefly be found today in the northwest Flanaess, in that region known as the Baklunish Basin and other nearby realms, including Zeif, Ekbir, Tusmit, Ull, Ket, the Dry Steppes, and the Plains of the Ulakandar. Also, the Chakyik and the Wegwiur people are largely of Baklunish descent.
In some cases, the Baklunish mirror the real-life Arabian people. Many similarities can be drawn between the two, including aspects of their culture and the influence of genies and other magical forces. However, other Bakluni groups have been compared to various nomadic horse tribes of Central Asia.
The Baklunish people traditionally count their years using the Baklunish Hegira calendar.
