No offense, but it's kind of lost it's interesting factor. However, I have an idea.

In the early Second Age, a Numenorean explorer picked up a group of followers from the Sunlands (Japan) and Numenor (Rome). They traveled to Harad, and picked up Moredain and Tauredain influence as well, and then finally settled on a Northern-jutting spur of the Darklands, which was a patchwork of jungle, Tuscan-like hills and mountains. They mixed with the locals, and the Atmoran culture and Empire was born, a Numenorean-esque proud kingdom with heavy influence from Eastern Harad, the Sunlands and the Darklands. They became incredible bronze-workers, largely due to the help of the Maia Darrius, and became quite the power. However, the original Darklander culture that mixed in brought allarming tails of terrifing lizard-men living in the more dense pockets of this land. These were dismissed as tails to tell to children who don't behave, until explorers found them - the Dovazhul. They were originally Avari that were twisted by Morgoth to become dragon-like, and they were made to be his watch over the Southern hemisphere. However, they rebeled, and became what the Atmorans now know as the Dovazhul. They speak (shocker) Dovazhul, while the Atmorans speak a strange language that has Latin structure and pluralization, Japanese prefix and suffix, Nahuatl verbs, Zulu adjectives, Pijantjara nouns and an overall Pijantjara accent. Now, before you say that there are no culturally syncratic powerful empires in modern-day Australia, may I remind you that the same could be said for a nation of xenophobic Elves living in the forests of China who have a powerful Maia as their leader?
