Arcerion culture itself is an evolved version of Carnish culture. Whereas Carna followed a more socialist and red-banner-eqsue path, colonial Arcer culture continued on its own course to its modern form. While Arcerion has no current landed nobility, politics and the military are both commonly dominated and flush with families and dynastic clans that control important aspects of Arcer culture. For example, a prominent figure in Arcer military history, General Johnathan Eddis, fathered three sons, two of whom became senior Army officers and the youngest a mayor in Northlea. This follows a slightly modified trend in Arcerion from their landed Carnish noble ancestry. Due to the rural and agrarian roots of Arcerion, it tends to follow much more of a 'boot-strap' mentality, wherein families that succeed based off of hard work and industriousness are prided over families of landed gentry from over a century prior. In Arcerion, country/social club culture is also an incredibly central feature of each family's weekly activities in the city, and in most rural communities as well. Families will send their children off to play in gardens, parks, or pools, whilst parents congregate in social lounges or parlours. This also serves as an integral part of Arcer business and government structure, with deals and agreements often being settled on the golf course or within the confines of a lounge over tobacco and gin. Traditionally, social clubs are managed by a private or public board, and are usually for-profit. Membership usually comes from sponsoring from an existing member, and with a limited number of new memberships each year, this creates obvious social circles within Arcer communities. Concurrently, membership is also passed paternally or maternally depending on the governate or even province, meaning that one's future membership can be determined just based off of one's parents.
