Conclusion: you will notice the early growth pattern is near identical except the vowels have shifted. The Chinese A is the Korean O, Chinese U is Korean A, and the Chinese I is Korean E.

So the korean name Na would be Nu. If that sounds familiar, its a name in an ancient chinese tale... about the creator goddess Nu Wa.

We can't close the five vowel group because comparative the pattern is interrupted by M appearing in korean a little early.

But if you move Korean Names into a chinese form, and chinese names into a korean form you get some unusual names.

Basic Expert: The Kobolds of the 1st Age

This dog-faced humanoid species is inherently intelligent. Described as hairless in the Basic D&D manual, this is down to a mange epidemic and most healthy Kobolds have a brown fur coat that makes them look more like halfling sized wolf-men.

Conclusion: These early Kobolds are descended from a Gnoll clan isolated on a shrinking land-mass that, thanks to rising sea levels, became a small Island (the lost Ancient Gnoll home mountain of Huuaauh!). The Gnoll population have died off leaving one kobold female and two male partners.

Huuaauh!
The Island is dominated by caves and caverns, the larger of which have subsided due to earthquakes, or been abandoned. The Kobolds took to living in small caves where larger Gnoll predators could not venture. They avoid the larger caves out of an irrational fear that there are still Gnolls on their island.

Conclusion: Notice the 0% undeveloped cultural alphabet is higher for men than women. Culturally they dont speak the same language and female cultural development is further along.

For Arabic culture, both males and females underwent three cultural development peaks (seen at (m/f): 18%/24%, 11%/15%, and 8%/7%) before dropping toward total cultural collapse. These each occuring with less female dominant full literacy. Females have been reduced to less than 1% full literacy, and male cultural development has dropped to 1% full literacy. They are headed into an unequal cultural collapse and will be gone within the next few decades without not only improving the cultural, educational, and economic benefits of both sexes- females immediatly, and the population as a whole within the next twenty years; But while 'pyramid building' will provide the culture with a cultural development spike it will only delay the innevitable collapse for a century and the cultural collapse will be practically vertical in the aftermath. If a consistent upward long growth trend is to be achieved, there need to be two 'Great Pyramid' level cultural development spikes (ideally from men and women -and not 'pyramids', though women immediatly) within a few years of each other followed by freedom to grow culturally for both sexes. This requires an end to religious, sexual, and educational oppression for the whole of the desired cultural growth period.

A failure to turn Arabic cultural development around will result in Arabic dominated Barbarism over the next century as new cultures struggle for development (a cultural bronze age collapse for the old civilization being imminent).
