South Coscivians: Difference between revisions

Land is the most important status symbol among Southern Kiravians, in keeping with their agrarian and manorial orientation. A great deal of agricultural land in Southern Kirav is entailed or held in hereditary or clan trusts to ensure that successive generations of a family will have valid claims to land and the income it generates. Landless Southern Kiravians will go to great lengths to acquire title or life tenure to land, even if it is economically unproductive, in order to obtain the social prestige that comes with property ownership.  

Southrons are noted for their practice of {{wp|cousin marriage|first-cousin marriage}}, which distinguishes them from the [[Kir people|Kir]], Kalvertans, and many other Coscivian groups. In 21206, X% of marriages in Issyria were between first cousins and Y% among second cousins. Among Southern Muslims, marriages between {{wp|parallel cousin|parallel cousins}} are preferred, and account for Z% of Muslim marriages.
