The Barbagia

sardinian_the_barbagia

The central mountains (the Barbagia) have remained a 'Land of Barbarians' to every Mediterranean invader for centuries. The culture here is defined by the S'Ard (Sardinian) identity, a fierce, isolated pastoralism that rejects any form of external taxation or conscription. This has created a cultural redoubt where the ancient Nuragic spirit of independence is preserved. An invading state can master the coastal cities, but the heart of the island will remain a forbidden zone, ensuring the survival of our customs through pure geographical and social defiance.
