Oneah is a country on an island in the Domains of Dominaria, east from the continent of Aerona. It lies north of Shanodin and south of Amjad, both on the same island.[1][2]
Description
The Oneahn Empire once was one of the most enlightened societies.[3] Though famous for their martial arts, the Oneahns viewed the ownership of a bladed weapon as strictly taboo.[4] The whole country was destroyed by hordes of goblins from the Red Mountains around 4165 AR.[3] To the knowledge of the woman named Ayesh ni hata Kan, only she survived from the whole nation.
Locations
Oneah contained seven main cities, called the Cities of the Sun (only six are known[5]):
- Xa-On
- Onnirah
- Onlish
- Onmarakhent
- Onnila
- Oneah City. The capital. A beautiful city.
- The Great Library[3]
- The Roof of Lights. The main temple.
Legacy
It is unclear if Oneah was active during the Phyrexian Invasion since when Sisay and Tahngarth visited the city just a few years before the Invasion, Oneah was abandoned for thirty years.
Onean scholars, clerics, and soldiers are noted for their wisdom and often quoted.
