The Riftwar

This is a collection of my notes about the Riftwar Cycle by Raymond E. Feist. There are different worlds with many nations and races; the primary worlds being Midkemia and Kelewan. On these worlds are many races and gods. If some of this looks vaguely familiar, I started a lot of articles on Wikipedia that have since been deleted, so I am bringing the information here.

Common race

Humanity on Midkemia and Kelewan is as diverse as it is on Earth, with many clear analogues to real-world cultures, from Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas. Humans did not originate on these worlds, they fled to them through rifts in space-time when the Valharu rose up to challenge the gods. Since then, the humans have flourished into the dominant race on those planets.
