Matak:

As you can all probably tell from my name, my favorite tribe from populous is the Matak. I just love their [[shaman]] graphic and how their buildings look. In multiplayer, I like to use the Matak's spells like [[erode]] and [[earthquake]] to completely devastate the opponents land limiting their building space. I like to play on the Populous reincarnated matchmaker but i still have yet to master the multiplayer aspect of the game.

Matak:

There are four tribes in [[Populous]]: The Beginning; all of them are identical in ability. Each tribe is distinguishable by diffrent color, by a diffrent [[shaman]] graphic, and by different building appearences.

==Ikani==
The Ikani tribe is the unofficial name for the Blue tribe; some players have speculated that this was the name that the developers were thinking of naming this tribe, though it seems the developers will even say that the Blue tribe is nameless. In terms of coding, the Blue tribe is called the Player tribe as seen in [[Single Player]] saved games. In [[Single Player]], this is the tribe that the player takes control of to aid the Blue [[Shaman]] on her quest, to destroy her enemies and become a god.

==Dakini==

The Dakini are probably the most powerful enemy in [[Populous]]. When the player fights the Dakini, they have (50% of the time) their camp entirely complete.

===Vault of Knowledges===

The Dakini had multiple powerful and useful [[Vault of Knowledge]]s. Their [[Vault of Knowledge]]s contained [[tornado]], [[firestorm]], [[Angel of Death]], and [[volcano]]. Their [[Vault of Knowledge]]s also contained the [[Warrior Training Hut]] and [[Firewarrior Training Hut]].

===Invasion of the Dakini===

When the Dakini attacks they use a good strike force. On a mission like [[Archipelago]] the tribes use boats for a heavy attack, in that mission they also attack early.
A Dakini attack force mostly has 4 [[Preacher]]s, 6 [[Warrior]]s and 6/8 [[Firewarrior]]s.

==Chumara==

The Chumara tribe is popular for being on islands by themselves in [[Single Player]]. They are known for their use of preachers as well as some uncommon (by online standards) tactics to achieve victory.

They are on a island to themselves in levels:-

*7: [[Unseen Enemy]]
*9: [[Fire In The Mist]]
*11: [[Treacherous Souls]]
*13: [[Aerial Bombardment]]
*14: [[Attacked From All Sides]]
*15: [[Incarcerated]]
*18: [[Head Hunter]]
*22: [[Solo]]
*23: [[Inferno]]

In level 19: [[Unlikely Allies]] the Chumara and the Blue Tribe are allies.

==Vault of Knowledges==

The Chumara's [[Vault of Knowledge]]s contain "tricky" spells and buildings. For spells, their [[Vault of Knowledge]]s contain [[invisibility]], [[hypnotise]] and [[Magical Shield]]. For buildings their [[Vault of Knowledge]]s include the [[temple]] and [[Spy Training Hut]].

==Matak==

The Matak are the green tribe in the game. They are usually the weakest on worlds where all 3 enemy tribes are found.

==Vault of Knowledges==

The Matak [[Vault of Knowledge]]s include earthy spells and one very important building. For spells their [[Vault of Knowledge]]s contain [[erode]], [[swamp]], [[lightning]], [[swarm]], [[flatten]], [[landbridge]], and [[earthquake]]. For the building the [[Vault of Knowledge]] contains the [[Guard Tower]].

==A mistake made in the demo version==
In the demo version of Populous: The Beginning, the yellow tribe, which should be the Chumara, was named the Matak tribe.

In level 19: [[Unlikely Allies]] the Chumara and the Blue Tribe are allies.

==Matak==
As far as [[Single Player]] is concerned, the Matak are probably the weakest of the four tribes in your adventure.

Well, not so far. The Matak can be weak, they can build the smallest settlements but they are a bit aggressive, more than the Chumara. The Matak are known by their use of [[erode]]/[[swamp]].

==A mistake made in the demo version==
In the demo version of Populous: The Beginning, the yellow tribe, which should be the Chumara, was named the Matak tribe.
