The Volsci, short for the Volsci Republic, is a nation on Eurth Situated in northern Europa, it is bordered by Deltannia to the north-west, Vetok to the south-west, and Karthenia and Paranoid Schizo to the south-east. Historically, they were among the most dangerous enemies of ancient Arhome.

Etymology

Most modern etymologists regard the tribal name Uolscae as being related to Pynglish: gwalch (hawk); perhaps related on the Proto-Indo-Europan level to East-Arhoman falco (hawk).

Compare the Volscian personal name Catolcus to Pynglish cadwalch ('hero' or 'battle-hawk'), though some prefer to translate Sabellic *uolco- as 'wolf' and, by semantic extension, 'errant warrior'.
