===The Tribes===
At the highest level, the People are divided into tribes.  Tribes can be considered a cross between an actual Native American tribe, a Indian caste, and a craft guild or trade union. Tribes are of various sizes, with the largest numbering in the thousands and the smallest with maybe 70 or fewer members.  Tribes can be differentiated by the following features, in rough order of importance:
* Niche - Each tribe usually has one or more areas in which its members excel, called its niche.  For example, the Soft Black Earth tribe is a large tribe whose focus is primarily agricultural, with large land holdings devoted to growing maize.  Another example is the Sweet but Painful tribe, a very small tribe whose sole focus is the collecting of wild honey from the massive bee nests that can be found in the forsest of the lands of the People.  
* Geography - Each tribe usually has a particular region that it is concentrated in.  The size of the region varies with the occupation that the tribes members are involved in.  For example, the Dancing Salmon in the Sun tribe is a tribe of sailors and fisherman who roam the eastern half of the Big Circle Lake, although its members can be found on larger vessels anywhere in the region.  The Grinning Blue Moon tribe, on the other hand, is a tribe of entertainers, actors, and storytellers who can be found just about anywhere in the lands of the People, competeing with other similar tribes, such as the Did You Hear The One About tribe.
