Organization
In this culture, power is determined by age. Farmers are most highly regarded. Neither gender is dominant. Social mobility is only possible for those born into a certain social class.
Religion
This religion reveres a particular animal or natural object as a spiritual emblem. Regular gatherings happen daily. Disciples assemble in synagogues to participate in ritual dance and share with an enlightened one.
Taboos
Crossing one's legs in public is considered bad manners.
Baring skin other than the face in public is a sign of moral degeneracy.
Speaking during religious practices is punishable by death.
Wearing dirty clothing in public is considered very bad luck.

Greetings
