In Chinese mythology lions are known for their invincibility, their power, wisdom and the great courage they are known for. And going back thousands of years in the country, the lion was considered the ninth son of the dragon. The lion played a major role in protecting the kings which is why you will see them as statues protecting large royal palaces and even everyday residences. These lion statues in homes and royal palaces have a name and that is “Foo Dog” where they also represent joy and happiness in the place they protect. There are also lion dances in Chinese culture where they bang on drums, dances and often use gongs for that dramatic impact. And since this is a RTG game, that means it is a US player friendly game.
