Halfling

Halfling culture is the primary culture shared by the Halfling species.   Two halfling cultures diverged sometime in the Age of Integrity (see Ages of History), today known as the Northwestern Clans and the Southern Clans. Though both clans freely intermingle today, there still remain some differences between them. The Northwestern Clans are known to be more independent and isolated from the cultures around them, due to the bellicose nature of the Human populations they bordered in the Age of Anxiety. The Southern Clans, in contrast, are more willing to share with and support their neighbors regardless of ethnicity.
