Kingdom Values
Jorians tend to be a versatile people, they know how to adapt to new people, ideas and situations quickly, making them great problem-solvers and mediators without violence, usually.
Honesty and integrity is all you need to succeed in your endeavors, and that you are nothing without them.
Joriah is built on trade and business, having a successful business means higher social standing, but there is a large respect for all the moving parts that keep a business afloat, and all the intermediary jobs that keep the kingdom afloat.
Having connections across the continents and over the sea is sometimes more valuable than gold, and in such a trade heavy kingdom, there's always someone who probably knows what you're looking for.
