 Born on a peninsula, surrounded by water on more than half of their borders, it is no surprise that Lusiads developed such a close relationship with the ocean, with fishing as one of the main industries throughout history. "The sea is a Lusiad's mistress and she's always in a mood," being a common joke. They also contain a romantic view of their ancient history, with their medieval golden age of exploration remembered fondly, as it was the time where the Lusiads were at their strongests. Their colonies were spread out to such a degree, the sun never set on their empire. They are one of the few cultures that still retains their old knightly orders, even if unofficially. In modern times, they are seen as ways to award conspicuous gallantry exhibited by Lusiads. This tradition survives on with the emblazoning of the red lion on clothing, and some special cases, [[nation:bts:bamf|]] armor.

Many of their arts take inspiration from other cultures, due to having been the first explorers to connect with different cultures in their world.

-In terms of leisure, they are great purveyors of fish, cheese and wine. Of special note is their cod, their mountain goat cheese and their signature wine called "D'Ouro", a green wine infused with small amounts of a medicinal psychoactive drug.  But the greatest unifying element of any Lusiad, is their singular love of football.
