The Ordonians are a humanoid race that are often mistaken for Hylians at first glance. Upon closer inspection, one notices that they lack the pointy ears of Hylians and instead have rounded ones. The origin of the Ordonians is unknown, though many claim that at one time they were Hylians, while others say they are the descendants of the lost Kingdom of Ikana. Whatever the case, Ordonians are able to have children with Hylians, though the birth always results in a child with rounded ears. For this reason marriages between Hylians and Ordonians are treated carefully, as fear of the Hylians being exterminated via breeding is all too common. The Ordonians themselves are more a more simple people then the Hylians, and are well known for their vast farming nation to the south of Hyrule. While they acknowledge the Goddesses, the chief deity of the Ordonians is the mysterious goat-like being known as Ordona, hence the origin of their name. They grow crops and breed both goats and horses that are then sold to a vast majority of Hyrule's other races, particularly the Hylians. It's for this reason that many consider the Ordonians a sub-servant nation of the Kingdom of Hyrule, and thus their political title of Ordona Province. Officially the Ordonians have no standing army. Unofficially, many Ordonians are willing and know how to fight and have makeshift forces always on standby. Years of fending off the Moblins of the West have made them a very strong people, and when their farms are threatened one should never be surprised to see a sudden army of pitchfork armed Ordonians charging at the aggressors. Because of their agricultural roots, the Ordonians are masters at breeding horses and fighting on them in combat. Without a doubt they have the best cavalry in all of Hyrule. Despite their superior advantage on horseback, the Ordonians' lack of true professional training mean that many of their soldiers fight with dirty and unrefined styles. Fighting in melee against a well trained force will likely result in their fighters being outclassed and beaten by pure skill. Even without proper training, the iron will and determination of an Ordonian army is rightfully feared by whatever force makes the terrible mistake of marking Ordona Province an enemy.&nbsp
