Heliohapt Kingdom (エリオハプト王国, Eriohaputo Ōkoku) is a small country situated in the north of the Dark Continent, ruled by King Sharrkan. It is the homeland of Sharrkan and Sphintus Carmen and part of the Seven Seas Alliance.

History[]

In the past, the royalty of this country had a dispute of who would take over the throne after the king passed away, Armakan or Sharrkan. As result, they split into two factions: the faction that supported Armakan and the faction who wanted Sharrkan to succeed the throne. Sinbad and his friends came and managed to help them solve this problem. Medical Magicians in the family of Sphintus Carmen were used by the Royal Family in this power struggle. They would be used to cause diseases on the opposing faction, and If the clan members refused, they were exiled from the country.[1]

Culture[]

Architecture[]

Heliohaptian culture is built around creating monolithic structures to awe visitors with their splendor and mystery.[2] Among them are The Gate of Happiness and an idol that protects Heliohapt. The palace is their crowning architectural achievement.[3]

Market[]

The markets sell a plant called Mandrulu based on the Mandrake. This plant is native to Heliohapt. Its medicinal use is to alleviate headache by boiling the plant. Another native plant is Toliri Helmet which helps the eyes. Another plant that aids headaches is the cypress faces. There is no explanation for the fang of a Murenia Baboon. [4]

In Heliohapt, having a pet snake around your neck is a symbol of high status.[5] The people of Heliohapt seem really fond of them.

Trivia[]

  • Its name is derived from the combination of two Ancient Greek words: the noun Helios (Ἥλιος) meaning Sun, and the verb hapto (ἅπτω) meaning to touch. Thus the name Heliohapt roughly translates to Touching the Sun.
  • Heliohapt is similar to Ancient Egypt. The eye emblem of Helipohapt is similar to the Egyptian Eye of Horus. Some people in Heliohapt wear masks similar the mask the Egyptian God Anubis wears. Also, the nobility wear headdresses similar to the headdresses of Egyptian Pharaohs. In a flashback by Sphintus, there are slaves carrying bricks in the desert with pyramids in the background. The Egyptians used hired workers (not slaves) to carry the bricks to form the pyramids.
  • The standard appearance of the native population of Heliohapt is dark skin, white hair, and green eyes.
  • The women of Heliohapt don't feel embarrassed about exposing their chests, only their navels.
