The Yonggan are a people of the northern Earth Kingdom, originally nomadic pastoralists like the Abka, who have now mostly adopted a settled, agrarian lifestyle. They are organized into various clans, one of which, the [[Bryce/Scratch/Nara|Nara Clan]], lives in the Si Wong desert.

== Origins ==
The Yonggan languages are distinctly related to the Abka languages and differ significantly from those of the rest of the Earth Kingdom; the Yonggan and Abka also share a significant number of cultural and religious traditions. It is believed that the Yonggan were originally also nomads, but became gradually more settled over the course of the 12th-9th centuries BG. The Abka displaced them from the steppe as they mastered mounted archery; the Yonggan on the other hand expanded into the foothills and mountain regions shunned by the Akba, developing their earthbending and practicing badgermole husbandry. They also developed more peaceful relationships with the nearby Earth Kingdom and its allied polities such as the Gan Jin, whereas the Abka mostly continued to raid these settled communities.
