	Anwari warriors are known for their strategic prowess, favoring hit-and-run tactics that utilize the challenging terrain of their homeland to their advantage. They are masters of ambush, wearing down their enemies with swift, unpredictable strikes. Ranged weapons, particularly longbows, are preferred for their ability to strike from a distance, keeping the enemy at bay. In close combat, Anwari fighters favor shorter, lighter swords such as scimitars, which allow for quick, agile movements. The sturdier among them might wield falchions, providing a balance of power and speed.

	Anwari society is a meticulously organized hierarchy where status and roles are clearly defined, ensuring a stable and prosperous community. Nobility and commoners coexist harmoniously, each group contributing to the overall well-being of their society. The nobility, often comprising wealthy merchants or skilled artisans, hold significant influence and responsibility, guiding both economic and social policies. They are expected to protect and uplift the commoners, who, in turn, respect the authority of their leaders.

They are expected to protect and uplift the commoners, who, in turn, respect the authority of their leaders.

	In the northern regions, where the largest settled communities thrive, the land is divided into kingdoms known as Ramastanaat. Each Ramastan is governed by an Al'Ramas, a title akin to king, passed down through generations within the same lineage. Noble families, referred to as Sajun, serve the Al'Ramas as advisors, generals, and other high-ranking officials. To each Sajun, the Al'Ramas assigns a portion of land to oversee.		In the northern regions, where the largest settled communities thrive, the land is divided into kingdoms known as '''Ramastanaat'''.

Noble families, referred to as '''Sajun''', serve the Al'Ramas as advisors, generals, and other high-ranking officials. To each Sajun, the Al'Ramas assigns a portion of land to oversee.

	Typically, the Sajun do not directly manage the regions assigned to them. Instead, they appoint trusted commoners to act as Al'Ralith, or governors, who are responsible for the day-to-day management and affairs of the region. This delegation ensures that governance is efficient and that the needs of the people are met by those closely connected to them.

	== Names ==		== Names ==

			For the noble and royal families, Anwari names are imbued with titles and lineage indicators, signifying their heritage and esteemed positions. These names, passed down through generations, carry the weight of history and honor. An example is Al'Ramas Hadiya Al'Qashar, which in the common tongue means "The King Hadiya The Healer." In this case, Qashar is a surname meaning "healer," likely originating from ancestors who were renowned healers. This tradition of meaningful surnames connects the present generation with the legacy of their forebears.

			Among settled commoners, names are typically followed by an indication of parentage, reflecting familial connections. For instance, Zayn Bin Nabil means "Zayn, daughter of Nabil." This practice of including the father's or mother's name as a suffix strengthens familial bonds and honors the lineage.

			Nomadic Anwari people have their own unique naming conventions. A person's name is always accompanied by an indication of their relationship to the leader of their nomadic group. Given that these groups are often large extended families, this relationship is usually one of kinship. An example is Hassan Bun Layth, which means "Hassan, grandson of Layth." Even if there is no kinship, a relationship with the leader must be indicated, whether it denotes servitude or another form of connection.

			Leaders of nomadic communities adopt their title as a surname, commonly Vashan. Thus, if the leader's name is Layth, he would be known as Layth Al'Vashan. This naming convention clearly identifies their leadership role within the community.

			In both settled and nomadic societies, these naming traditions are more than mere identifiers; they are woven into the fabric of Anwari culture, reflecting their values, honoring their heritage, and strengthening the bonds within their communities.
