Revision as of 18:54, 12 March 2021
The tranquil and wise Ai-Mo tribe inhabits the harshest, windiest, and highest mountain range of the square, where they have found inner peace by meditating in the eternal evening light.
–Tribe description
The Ai-Motribe is the 10th of the 12 regular tribes in Polytopia. Ai-Mo starts with the Meditationtechnology.
Ai-Mo is typically considered to be a lower-mid-tier tribe due to its varied resources and practically useless starting technology (Meditation does not unlock any unit, nor does it lead to any resource technologies). However, Ai-Mo can receive an Altar of Peace as early as turn 5.
Mountain: Rocky and spiraled mountains with gold-capped tops
City: Grey stone and colourful flags with either flat orange roofs or pointed white roofs
Helmet: A small turquoise ribbon on the center of the forehead

The Instagram post introducing the Ai-Mo tribe
We, the tranquil Ai-Mo tribe, are this close to reaching Enlightenment and Eternal Peace. This close. There is just one slight problem – all the other tribes. If they could just avoid living on the Square, disturbing our tranquil meditation it would be perfect. If they could just follow our example – drink llama milk, have a mind-melting wild chili from time to time, and focusing on finding inner peace – we would all live in harmony together... If you don’t like it, you rest in pieces. And please: Ssshhhh!!![1]

Should you ever get the chance to taste Om-soi, don't hesitate. It holds the power of healing and gives serenity to any anxious mind. Only the Ai-Mo know the recipe, and it has been a well kept secret since the beginning of turns.[3]
This traditional costume is usually worn during the Feast of Ai-ioo, a celebration dedicated to the hard-working Llamo. The day is spent with ceremonies and dances to honor and praise the Llamo's great importance to the Ai-Mo people.[4]
The Ai-Mo are influenced by Tibetan and Andean cultures.[5]
The Ai-Mo bear a vague resemblance to Airbenders from the popular TV series "Avatar: The Last Airbender."
In the ambience that plays throughout Ai-Mo lands, a constant, deep, yet calm humming sound; wind blowing through the mountain ranges and the trees; and sorts of distant horns, gongs, and/or bells being played are heard.
