Description[?]:


In accordance with section 6 of the Game Rules (http://forum.particracy.net/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=6365), Saridan is a "culturally protected" nation. Below is the cultural protocol which all players in the nation must abide. Throughout the document, the real-life equivalent is shown in brackets next to the in-game name.

--OVERVIEW--

The indigenous Saridani population are the Ikpi people who originally practiced animism before converting to Yazdism as a result of the influence of the Aldegarian people who migrated from further north. Later, the Canrillaise-speaking Euphitrien people arrived in Saridan from southern Seleya. During this time, there was frequent conflict between the Ikpi and Euphitriens over land, food and water. The white-Artanian Duntrekker people arrived in Saridan from Dundorf during the eighteenth century. Over the coming centuries, the Duntrekkers would come to dominate Saridan, culturally and politically.

Due to liberal immigration policy towards the end of the fourth millennium, Saridan also has notable minorities of Aldegarian and Mordusian people. Additionally, over a fifth of the Saridani population is Iftgoerroon, meaning they have a mixed heritage. At one time, Iftgoerroon was defined as having one Ikpi and one Duntrekker parent however in modern times, this definition has been abandoned and Iftgoerroon people can have any combination of heritage and cultural background.

Saridan has a long history of segregation, referred to as Apartheid, where society has been socially stratified with the Duntrekkers on top, the Iftgoerroons in the middle, and the Ikpi and Euphitriens on the bottom. While this practice has ended, Ikpi and Euphitriens tend to be poorer than the rest of the population. In recent decades, this poverty has caused a population boom amongst these communities, and their populations are increasing at a much larger rate than the rest of the country.

The Duntrekker population of Saridan are overwhelmingly adherents to Restored Ameliorate Church of Saridan. The Ikpi and Aldegarian minorities both follow Yazdism and the Iftgoerroon are a mixture of both of these religions. Although they are still Hosian, Mordusians and Euphitriens tend to belong to the Luthoran communion.

Additionally, the Morudusians, Aldegarians and Euphitriens each speak their own respective languages to some extent.

Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar).

Random quote: "Civil disobedience. . . is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that numbers of people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of the leaders of their government and have gone to war, and millions have been killed because of this obedience. . Our problem is that people are obedient all over the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves, and all the while the grand thieves are running the country. That's our problem." - Howard Zinn
