| Taństem have been part of the Coscivian presence in Ixnay from the first expeditions of [[Kedhur Valēkas]], whose crew were over one-fifth Taństem. Taństem were the primary settlers of Fariva and Axonléga and had a major presence in all of the Coscivian colonies in Ixnay except for [[Etivéra]], [[Váuadra]], and [[Ilánova]].

| | |
| Taństan Coscivian is one of the most widely-spoken Coscivian vernacular language, with a long literary tradition and a well-developed network of Taństem-medium educational institutions, newspapers, and radio stations. It is an official language of Fariva, Axóléga, and the Austral and Itapau Islands. However, there are far fewer monolingual speakers of Taństan Coscivian than of the other vernacular languages of commensurate size, with most Taństem being fluent in Kiravic. Most monolingual Taństan-speakers in Great Kirav hail from overseas colonies or Livensóla.
| |
| | |
| ==Religion==
| |
| Ruricanism is the traditional faith of the Taństem people, but since the XYZth century the ethnic group has become increasingly diverse in terms of religion. Archepiscopal, Mercantile Protestant, weird little Ranter sects, Iduan, Komarist, Moon Cult, Unitarian, Universalist Church of Kiravia, The Tínorem The Marþonem are a Roman Catholic subgroup of Taństem living in close-knit communities in Hanoram, Ilfenóra, and St. Francis Xavier. Some Taństem have adopted Reformed Orthodoxy (Theophilianism).
| |
| | |
| ==Culture and Customs==
| |
| | |
| The Taństem have a stratified, hierarchical culture that places great importance on notions of social rank, propriety, and protocol.
| |
| | |
| Most Taństem marriages are endogamous, but patterns of exogamy vary according to social rank and class. Rural Taństem are the most strictly endogamous segment of the ethnic group, followed by Republican-class Taństem in metropolitan and micropolitan areas who trace their ancestry to the old yeomanry and lesser nobility of Taństedan. Taństem involved in the maritime industry, seaborne commerce, and the navy have traditionally been more open to exogamy, while many aristocratic Taństem families have intermarried with families of comparably high status from other Coscivian groups. With regard to intra-ethnic marriages, rank, class, and ancestry play a major role in determining whether a pairing is acceptable. Marriages between Taństem from very different levels of the social hierarchy are strongly discouraged, and families often have strict standards as to which bloodlines are worthy of marrying their sons and daughters. Several services, including both for-profit companies and nonprofit societies, collect information on Taństem marriage prospects in a particular region, as well as their family histories, and publish this information in annual "marriage almanacs" to help young Taństem seeking spouses. {{wp|Cousin marriage}} is traditionally accepted among the Taństans, and in fact preferred among some subgroups.

| The Taństem have a strong {{wp|tea culture}} that sets them apart from other Coscivian-Kiravians, who have generally come to prefer coffee since settling in Ixnay and have developed a coffee culture adapted from [[Culture_of_Caphiria#Food_.26_Drugs|the Hekuvian]]. Taństem tea culture includes several {{wp|tea ceremony|tea-centred rituals}}, a literary canon of {{wp|Tea classics|tea classics}}, and the inclusion of tea consumption into other aspects of life, such as business meetings and hospitality customs. Like other Coscivians, the Taństem regularly visit the graves of deceased relatives, and have the unique traditions of leaving cups of tea or burning tea leaves as a grave offering.
| |
| | |
| ==Interethnic Relations==
| |
| The Taństem are closely related to several other Coscivian ethnic groups, including [[Southern Kiravians]], Tínorem, Liscem, Ebondem, Candem, and Ayonarem, some of which share Taństan Coscivian as their mother tongue; and more distantly to the {Erasmem or whatever we're calling them now}, Nūrthem, and Lúnstem.
| |
| | |
| Historical animosity between the Taństem and [[Ĥeldican Coscivians]] in Éorsa has carried over to Kiravia, and there remains a great deal of distrust and hostility between Taństem and Ĥeldican populations living in close proximity to one another. In Fariva, members of the many non-Taństem groups that have immigrated to the state over the centuries often pride themselves on being different from the politically and economically dominant Taństem, despite having adopted many aspects of Taństem-derived Farivan regional culture.
| |
|
| |
| ==Distribution==
| |
| Taństem can be found throughout the Kiravian Federacy. They are strongly associated with the lower states of the Far Northeast, such as [[Fariva]], [[Axonléga]], Serikorda, and {{wp|Rhode Island}}, as well as Erinava, Iscavia, and the Aromatic Isles. Large populations can be found in [[Venèra]], northern [[Etivéra]], Oceantropica, Candava, [[Kiygrava]], [[Devalōmara]], and [[Ventarya]]. [[Southern Kiravians]] and [[Tínorem]], the historically dominant ethnic groups of South Kirav and the Míhanska Bay states respectively, are of primarily Taństem ancestry but are now seen as distinct (though closely related) peoples rather than Taństem subgroups.
