===Folk culture and cuisine ===
Volkian culture is an amalgamation of the cultures of four western Iturian lupine tribes that inhabited Volkia: the [[Volkiplemeni]], [[Yekarians]], [[Vyalovians]], and [[Orlikians]]. Volkiplemeni culture was the most dominant, thus many aspects of Volkian culture are directly taken from the Volkiplemeni.
Volkian {{Wp|handicraft}}, like vyra pottery, Uvat toys, and Tupik painting are important aspects of Volkian folk culture. Ethnic Volkian clothing includes {{wp|kaftan#Russian|khalat}}, {{wp|kosovorotka}}, and {{wp|ushanka}} for men, {{wp|sarafan|dzhempka}}, {{wp|ochipok}}, and {{wp|kokoshnik}} for women. Common shoes include {{wp|bast shoes|lapot}} and {{wp|valenki|valyaniye}}.
[[Volkian cuisine]] widely uses poultry, fish, berries, milk, and honey. {{wp|Rye}}, {{wp|wheat}}, {{wp|barley}}, and {{wp|millet}} crops provide the ingredients for breads, pancakes, and cereals, as well as for beer and vodka drinks. Soups and stews common in Volkia include {{wp|shchi}}, {{wp|borsch}}, {{wp|ukha}}, {{wp|solyanka}} and {{wp|okroshka}}. {{wp|Smetana}} (a heavy sour cream) is often added to soups and salads. {{wp|Pirozhki}}, {{wp|blini}}, and {{wp|syrniki}} are common types of pancakes. Popular meat dishes include {{wp|pelmeni}} and {{wp|shashlyk}}, with chicken cutlets and various beef cuts making popular centerpieces for other meat dishes. Tea is popular with Volkians, as well as domestically produced beers and vodkas.
