Where it all began

Once there was a story about a family that grew up together in Terralosa. George, the father, was pater familias of the country in 1989. He married Helena and they had two children called Sean and Bryan. Bryan was the youngest and he was always jealous of his brother, because he had the advantage of becoming the new pater familias of Terralosa. Bryan wanted more and he thought it wasn’t fair that the oldest one became the leader. They got into a fight when their father died. That’s when the war between North and South began…

 

North and South have a different pater familias: Bryan (N) and Sean (S)

 

Shared values/DNA:

-          Collectivism, working together

-          Caring for nature and family

-          Respect and loyalty to the pater familias, otherwise: punishment (e.g. do the dirty work, carry all the bags to

           another place,…)

-          anti materialistic

-          Spiritual: they pray to the gods to survive and to have a good harvest

-          Everybody uses things from nature to paint their bodies to show their experience and wisdom of life

-          Men go hunting for food and cook

-          Women stay home and care for the children

-          They communicate with smoke
