Civilization and Culture
Culture and Cultural Heritage
The Zygerrian culture is deeply intertwined with their historical legacy of conquest, domination, and the trade of sentient beings. This complex heritage has left an indelible mark on their societal norms, values, and traditions. Rooted in their feline nature and shaped by their past, Zygerrian culture is a blend of strength, cunning, and adaptability. At the heart of Zygerrian culture is the belief in "might makes right," which holds that a combination of physical prowess and intelligence paves the way to power and authority. This ethos, borne from their history as conquerors and enslavers, has become a defining aspect of their identity. The concept encapsulates both their inherent feline agility and their keen intellect. While many Zygerrians uphold this belief with fervor, those who have been exposed to diverse cultural influences may offer varied interpretations of its significance.
