Vakjjun

Vakjjun was an ancient term used by the Rajjuulk to identify and acknowledge their tribes as a separated but united people under the concept of divergent but steadfast chiefdoms. Lead by various racial Zyyrs who were responsible for vaguely guiding their designated racial architype, these warrior kings served a purpose to allow for each ancestral race to have a voice in the greater orchestration that was the Raajjyn people. This in a way was the birth of Raajjyn style oligarchic rule that was seen in the early days of Kyydrosil's government. However, unlike a nation, Vakjjun is rather more so a collection of tribes that vaguely serve underneath a brotherly banner. They hold no real territory that is accepted by most of the world but rather they hold ancient territory and cultural territory that only the Raajjyn people recognize. In some areas this has sparked controversy among the natives of the world, however, for the most part this is far more harmless to non-affiliated nations then to the tribes that squabble over arbitrary ground.

Tribal Structure
The structure of tribes within Vakjjun are often dictated and categories into 3 main types; Warbands, Collectives/Tribes, and Banners. These 3 types contribute to Raajjyn society in various different ways, from military, to cultural and technological reasons, to even the need to fill the hole in a Raajjyn's appetite for brutish violence. Like governmental branches, these tribal types fill the roles of similar parties though with a more loose grasp and less strict strain on what they can do. This means in a sense that Tribes are mostly detached from one another in terms of overall structure, however, don't be fooled by this orientation. In times of emergency of either being faced with extinction, or the genocide/attack from an outside source that isn't Raajjyn do the tribes come together to form a sort of phantom international military/militia.

Warbands
Warbands are a common sight to be seen in Raajjyn tribal populations due to the nature of Raajjyns themselves. Given their need for violence on a day to day basis, Raajjyn tribes often organize themselves into raiding war parties focused on the killing and territorial attacks on other opposing tribes/racial groups. The most famous of these ancestral fights is that of the northern tribes versus the southern tribes of the world. Warbands are almost always lead by a chieftain but can be lead by a Zyyr or High Chieftain, but only in dire or rare occasions. Their purpose is to act as biological entertainment, appeasement of inter tribal issues and as militias for emergency levy. These warrior bands typically set up in relative proximity to another friendly tribe or opponent tribe, either to give support or to consistently clash with. However, Some warbands have been seen to be used as mercenary groups for certain nations, however this is uncommon given the stigma behind the possible interaction a nation may have in a local racial war due to this occurrence.

Collectives/Tribes
Tribes or also known as collectives, are a more general purpose tribal system that is more often seen across the Rathnir than other tribal types. This is due to their apparent feature of not fully aligning to one specific role and rather hold onto various different roles and specialties by comparison. From scientific/engineering Tribes, to cultural and mercantile tribes. These tribes often serve a very specific purpose in which their people prefer, though like warbands they too see combat here and there, with some of the more exotic tribes accepting of non-Raajjyn blooded persons. However the acceptance of non-blooded people is incredibly rare given the cultural of the Raajjyn people being very alien and brutal compared to others. Tribes can in some cases be very nomadic, going from one place to another for various purposes. Nomadic Engineering tribes are some of the more interesting tribes, of which tread the earth below them to create and fix old infrastructure from forgotten times and create new ones to help in an overall goal.

Some tribes have been heavily integrated into the cultures of other peoples, as such they can be looked down upon on occasion. Bastardization is stigmatized as a loss of one's own culture, and can also help perpetuate the already existing world wide race wars between tribes and their people.

Banners
The third and final type of tribe is that of the Banner. Banners are organized and often mixed groups of Raajjyn who have become angered or radicalized toward a common goal. The most famous of these banners is that of The Grey Banner, which served its time harrassing and attacking Aurlunor in its earliest of years. The Grey Banner would later go onto fight to extinguish the country it had founded due to cultural differences in the region that had made Raajjyn culture rarer to the common eye. Banners unlike tribes or warbands are often designated by a color rather than a name. Its not exactly known when they caught on, but its likely due to the influence of The Grey Banner, though not all scholars agree with this theory. Their role in Raajjyn society is to act as the chaos element in all of it and in many cases as the ones with moral lacking who are willing to do the dirty work for a "Greater outcome" as they often deem it.
