Jaramah

The Jaramah, was a twin culture of the Zonrazeh, are the principal culture of Jarazeh, comprising approximately 80% of the Jarazeh Population. They are the descendants of the pirates-nomads who used to inhabit the region, the Ancient Ajookan people. Unlike the Zonrazeh they do not have a set "system" and their people sees the Shah as their leader.
== Fashion ==
The Jaramah peoples wear glistening robes along with a Keffiyeh, usually made with silk or cloth. They sport short hair as a way to be prepared for battle at all times. Since longer hair will only hinder you during battle. 
They are also a very honorable and prideful demographic, as seen through their hierarchy. Common people sport brown or maroon attire along with green, and almost no yellow. Warriors dress with more saturated reds, less green and some yellow, often carrying their weapons with them and wearing armor beneath their robes. The best warriors and the most elite within their societies dress with bright red and yellow attire, combined with black bindings. This elite tier also wears armor beneath their clothes, and carries their weapons with them. 
Religious color theory sees wearing long silky red robes as a way to become invisible to Vaktar. Red hold the idea of destruction, so their ancestors believed that being red meant that other red beings could not fathom you. Meanwhile, they wear Yellow as well, to shine like Verjah. Who's radiant aura is said to be stored within yellow, believing that being as bright as Verjah repels Vaktar and protects them.
== Spirituality ==
The Jaramah follow Vermehyān, a religion who sees Armino'so ve-Zond'Labbeh as one of its' prophets, compelling the Jaramah to follow in the pathway of their fellow countries-man. Vermehyān speaks about how the Zond, alongside Shabaaz are Gods who are apart of Verjah. The Shah is also always a registered Cardinal within the faith.
== Honour ==
Jaramah Culture is largely based on honor, with the thrill of battle being a large portion of their culture. This ranges back to the age of piracy where the most prestigious folk were those of high ranks or those who became part of the crew in large ships. They are also noble warriors who aided the Shah and worked for them. These ideas have translated to the modern age with a prestigious view of civil workers and military soldiers, who are seen as the most righteous in the Nation and giving in the nation. 
Many people view having a servant of the Shah in your lineage with great regard, it is also the reason most families rise to prominence, via serving the honorable Shah. Another way to rise the ranks is to duel those of higher rank, to be decorated in battle, or to show your skill within competitions or tournaments.
The Jaramah cherish their swords, being given an ingot of metal when born. When the right age comes, they will shape this ingot into a valiant sword. This sword is a tool and a weapon, but moreover it is seen as an extension of their soul, so they take great pride in maintaining, repairing, and training with their sword. If one's sword breaks through neglect, the wielder is shunned. However if a sword breaks through good use, the sword is salvaged, and incorporated into a new decorated weapon. Continuing the bond of the sword and wielder.
Marriage is a prominent part of Jaramah culture, typically with large celebrations being held between the groom and bride, it is viewed as an important way to gain honor, when married, the entire village comes along to party, it is seen more as a political affair than a love one, unlike the Zonrazeh folk, marriage here is viewed as a way to reconcile two warring families or to set up a deal, the gender roles however, are equal with none expected to do more than the other etc.. 
== Jaramah Hierarchy System ==
The Jaramah Hierarchy System has been ever present in Jarazeh from it's founding. There are four castes going from lowest to highest:
* The Kerwoota, also known as common people who wander cities or follow a nomadic lifestyle
* The Najeek, the basic warriors who's skills are still developing
* The Bavleem, who are powerful warriors who have honed their skills
* The Renseev, who are very skillful warriors who are almost unmatched
** The Makseema, a subgroup of Renseev warriors, they are those who’s family has served the Shah in the past or currently
** The Sharenma, a subgroup of Renseev warriors, are those who currently serve the Shah 
The highest class is known as the Renseev having 2 subclasses as well, and Kerwoota is known as the lowest class. This system came about from ancient times, but was "standardized" during the reign of Shah Maxan “The Righteous” the first, as a way to prevent rebellions and coups. Considering the politically versatile nature of the soil the Jaramah and Zonrazeh lived in, it is upheld as an important aspect of Jaramah, if not the most.
== Aggression and violence ==
Violence another important aspect of Jaramah’s culture, with a motto fitting well to describe the attitude towards violence. In the Jaramah people's words: "Words promise, but Hands deliver". It is a reminder to how frail diplomacy would bend to the permanence of conflict. Business as usual, they say. For entertainment, the Jaramah often partake in duels, which serves as an activity. They also consistently train for wars, thus, it is common to see arenas and tournaments in Jaramah cities.
