	* The krakun took over as the center of the anup religion centuries ago. In practice, this doesn't mean much in terms of the religion's rituals. Krakun are treated as gods; cults following specific krakun have their own ideas and practices around them which the krakun may or may not deliberately cultivate. But krakun rarely bother with micromanaging the details of anup's day-to-day activities--they are only really concerned with receiving tribute.		* The krakun took over as the center of the anup religion centuries ago.

==Language==
Anupese is a tonal language. The actual inflections of the tones are not depicted in text.
The language is also highly laconic. Lots of parts of speech are elided if they are understood from context. There are no articles, referential pronouns are frequently dropped, and entire parts of a sentence can be omitted so long as one word can convey the meaning.
