It spans 5 star systems, which hold a total of 16 terrestrial planets, two of which have been entirely given to the Astralics which have managed to adapt to their new reality.
The Guitlaro Entente is a highly structured and hierarchical organization, formed to govern the vast territories inhabited by the Anthral species. It spans 8 star systems, 15 primary planets and 26 celestial habitats, each with its unique environment and culture, overseen by one of the 16 Puritanian Clans. At the helm of this expansive governance structure is the '''Higher Table''', a council consisting of the leaders of the 16 Puritanian Clans, with the '''Heriness''', a Klosarin created for the sole purpose of seeking the betterment of Anthrals, serving as the supreme authority above them.


It has gained a name for itself amongst the Adrophontic League, currently being classified as a 'lau' body due to humanity's specific technological advancements, natural use of magi, gyro-varse knowledge, favoritism of free will, and high adaptability, as well as it's disdain for having other bodies tell it what it can and can't do.

== Culture ==
=== Culture ===
The Guitlaro culture has a heavy racial hierarchy, in which the original natural race of humans, the Puritanians, rest at the very top, holding an almost royalty like disposition.
The culture of the Guitlaro Entente is rich from diverse histories, traditions, and philosophies of its various clans and races. Despite the vast differences among the Anthral sub-races and their unique environments of their home planets, several key themes define the collective culture of the Entente.
Those within the Guitlaro feel as though humanity has cursed itself through it's constant playing with unnatural toys through it's history, as such they have gained a puritan mentality and hold naturality to a high standard.

|The Guitlaro culture has evolved with a heavy racial hierarchy, with the eight Pure-Blood Clans of the Puritanians forming the top echelon of it's society. Just under Puritanian, are the Neumen who make up a majority of the population, with the ever so loyal and abundant Klosarins, who make up all service jobs, dealing with the things most humans prefer to not do. Meumen hold a weird position under them where they're either generally accepted or complete outcasts, based on their genetics, with the grey Kauiel resting just under them, almost unanimously liked. The two which hold the bottom of the hierarchy, the Turíí and Cátír, are hardly talked about anymore, once a great and noble sub-race of humans, the Umbrian, have evolved in specifically created environments which have caused them to have specifically curated looks.

=== Puritanian Clans ===
==== Core Values ====


==== Metro ====
# '''Purity and Heritage:'''
#* At the heart of Guitlaro’s culture is a deep reverence for purity, particularly among the Puritanian Clans. This concept of purity is not just genetic but also cultural, emphasizing the preservation of traditions, rituals, and knowledge passed down through generations. The Puritanian Clans are seen as the keepers of this purity, and their lineage is celebrated and honored across the Entente.
# '''Hierarchy and Order:'''
#* Guitlaro society is highly hierarchical, with a strict social order that is both respected and enforced. Each clan and sub-race has its place within the societal structure, and this order is viewed as essential to the stability and prosperity of the Entente. Respect for authority, both within the family unit and in society at large, is deeply ingrained in the culture.
# '''Collective Advancement:'''
#* The Guitlaro culture places a strong emphasis on the collective over the individual. While personal achievements are celebrated, they are always seen in the context of how they contribute to the greater good of the clan, the planet, or the Entente as a whole. This collective mindset fosters a sense of unity and purpose among the Anthrals, driving them to work together towards common goals.
# '''Adaptation and Resilience:'''
#* The Anthrals of the Guitlaro Entente are known for their adaptability and resilience. Whether it is adapting to the harsh environments of their home planets or evolving to meet new challenges, the Anthrals take pride in their ability to overcome obstacles. This trait is celebrated in their stories, art, and rituals, reinforcing the idea that survival and progress come through adaptation.
# '''Innovation and Knowledge:'''
#* Knowledge is power in the Guitlaro Entente, and there is a strong cultural emphasis on education, innovation, and the pursuit of knowledge. This is particularly evident in the Luminous and Aventinarius Clans, but the value of intellectual achievement is widespread. Scientific discoveries, technological advancements, and strategic innovations are all highly respected and rewarded.


==== Rector ====
==== Cultural Practices ====


==== Caroli ====
# '''Rituals and Ceremonies:'''
#* Rituals play a significant role in Guitlaro culture, with each clan having its own set of ceremonies that mark important life events such as birth, coming of age, marriage, and death. These rituals are deeply symbolic, often involving elements that connect the participants to their ancestors and the cosmos. The Puritanian Clans, in particular, have elaborate ceremonies that reinforce their status and heritage.
# '''Art and Expression:'''
#* Art in the Guitlaro Entente is a reflection of both the beauty and the challenges of life. From the intricate carvings and sculptures of the Verdugo Clan to the vibrant murals and performances of the Valencia Clan, art is a way for Anthrals to express their identity and connect with their history. Music, dance, and storytelling are also vital cultural elements, with each planet or station having its own unique styles and traditions.
# '''Martial Training:'''
#* Given the hierarchical and often competitive nature of Guitlaro society, martial prowess is highly valued. Many young Anthrals undergo rigorous training in various forms of combat, not just for defense but as a means of personal development and social status. Competitions and duels are common, serving as both entertainment and a way to resolve disputes.
# '''Cultural Festivals:'''
#* Festivals are a key aspect of Guitlaro culture, with each planet or station hosting its own annual celebrations that highlight their unique heritage. These festivals often include processions, feasts, and competitions, and they serve to reinforce community bonds and cultural pride.
# '''Technology and Magi Integration:'''
#* The Guitlaro Entente has seamlessly integrated advanced technology and magi into their daily lives. This fusion is evident in everything from their architecture and transportation systems to their communication methods and entertainment. The use of magi is not seen as supernatural but as a natural extension of the Anthral species’ abilities, with its use being both practical and ceremonial.


==== Hassia ====
==== Social Structure ====


==== Aventinarius ====
# '''Clan Loyalty:'''
#* Loyalty to one's clan is paramount in Guitlaro society. Clans function as extended families, with members often living, working, and training together. The success of the clan reflects on every member, and there is a strong sense of responsibility to contribute to the clan’s prestige and power.
# '''Inter-Clan Relations:'''
#* While competition between clans is fierce, it is also regulated by strict codes of conduct. Alliances, marriages, and trade agreements are common ways to strengthen ties between clans, though rivalries can be equally intense. These relationships are carefully managed to maintain the overall stability of the Entente.
# '''Gender and Roles:'''
#* Gender roles in Guitlaro society are fluid, with abilities and merit taking precedence over gender in determining an individual’s role and status. However, certain clans may have traditional roles that are gender-specific, though these are generally seen as cultural rather than restrictive.
# '''The Role of the Heriness:'''
#* The Heriness serves as both a leader and a symbol of unity, transcending clan loyalties and embodying the collective will of the Anthral species. The Heriness’s decisions are respected across all levels of society, and their role is seen as a divine mandate to guide the Anthrals towards a prosperous future.


==== Ortega ====
==== Cultural Tensions and Challenges ====


==== Ramos ====
# '''Racial Hierarchy:'''
Outer Puritanians; There are eight other clans who live outside of the Guitlaro entente and have been ostracized from the Human culture.
#* While the Puritanian Clans hold the highest status, this has led to underlying tensions with the other sub-races of Anthrals, particularly those who feel marginalized or oppressed. The Guitlaro Entente’s strict hierarchy, while maintaining order, can also be a source of resentment and conflict.
# '''The Pursuit of Purity:'''
#* The emphasis on purity, particularly among the Puritanians, can create a sense of exclusion for those with mixed heritage or who possess unusual mutations. These individuals may face social stigma or pressure to conform, leading to a struggle between individuality and societal expectations.
# '''External Threats:'''
#* The Guitlaro Entente’s emphasis on self-sufficiency and independence often puts it at odds with external forces, be they other Ententes or galactic powers. This has fostered a culture of vigilance and preparedness, with a strong focus on defense and security.

The Guitlaro Entente is a highly structured and hierarchical organization, formed to govern the vast territories inhabited by the Anthral species. It spans 8 star systems, 15 primary planets and 26 celestial habitats, each with its unique environment and culture, overseen by one of the 16 Puritanian Clans. At the helm of this expansive governance structure is the Higher Table, a council consisting of the leaders of the 16 Puritanian Clans, with the Heriness, a Klosarin created for the sole purpose of seeking the betterment of Anthrals, serving as the supreme authority above them.

Gaining a name for itself quickly, from it's creation until the Isa Wars it was classified a 'Lau' body, due to Anthralian's technological advancements, natural use of magi, gyro-varse knowledge, favoritism of free will, and high adaptability.

Culture

The culture of the Guitlaro Entente is rich from diverse histories, traditions, and philosophies of its various clans and races. Despite the vast differences among the Anthral sub-races and their unique environments of their home planets, several key themes define the collective culture of the Entente.

The flag of the Guitlaro Entente, also known as the flag of Anthrals, is a symbol of unity, resilience, and the shared destiny of the Anthral species. It consists of a large white asymmetrical rhombus, representing the Anthrals in the vast expanse of the celestial ocean, with a red circle in the center, symbolizing both the Heriness and Ceryniotsklesu (the original system of the Anthrals). Surrounding this central circle are four yellow circles, representing the primary star systems under Guitlaro’s direct control, and four more green circles, representing the major Anthral-inhabited planets within these systems. The background of the flag is dark blue, representing the infinite possibilities of the cosmos.

Core Values

  1. Purity and Heritage:
    • At the heart of Guitlaro’s culture is a deep reverence for purity, particularly among the Puritanian Clans. This concept of purity is not just genetic but also cultural, emphasizing the preservation of traditions, rituals, and knowledge passed down through generations. The Puritanian Clans are seen as the keepers of this purity, and their lineage is celebrated and honored across the Entente.
  2. Hierarchy and Order:
    • Guitlaro society is highly hierarchical, with a strict social order that is both respected and enforced. Each clan and sub-race has its place within the societal structure, and this order is viewed as essential to the stability and prosperity of the Entente. Respect for authority, both within the family unit and in society at large, is deeply ingrained in the culture.
  3. Collective Advancement:
    • The Guitlaro culture places a strong emphasis on the collective over the individual. While personal achievements are celebrated, they are always seen in the context of how they contribute to the greater good of the clan, the planet, or the Entente as a whole. This collective mindset fosters a sense of unity and purpose among the Anthrals, driving them to work together towards common goals.
  4. Adaptation and Resilience:
    • The Anthrals of the Guitlaro Entente are known for their adaptability and resilience. Whether it is adapting to the harsh environments of their home planets or evolving to meet new challenges, the Anthrals take pride in their ability to overcome obstacles. This trait is celebrated in their stories, art, and rituals, reinforcing the idea that survival and progress come through adaptation.
  5. Innovation and Knowledge:
    • Knowledge is power in the Guitlaro Entente, and there is a strong cultural emphasis on education, innovation, and the pursuit of knowledge. This is particularly evident in the Luminous and Aventinarius Clans, but the value of intellectual achievement is widespread. Scientific discoveries, technological advancements, and strategic innovations are all highly respected and rewarded.

Cultural Practices

  1. Rituals and Ceremonies:
    • Rituals play a significant role in Guitlaro culture, with each clan having its own set of ceremonies that mark important life events such as birth, coming of age, marriage, and death. These rituals are deeply symbolic, often involving elements that connect the participants to their ancestors and the cosmos. The Puritanian Clans, in particular, have elaborate ceremonies that reinforce their status and heritage.
  2. Art and Expression:
    • Art in the Guitlaro Entente is a reflection of both the beauty and the challenges of life. From the intricate carvings and sculptures of the Verdugo Clan to the vibrant murals and performances of the Valencia Clan, art is a way for Anthrals to express their identity and connect with their history. Music, dance, and storytelling are also vital cultural elements, with each planet or station having its own unique styles and traditions.
  3. Martial Training:
    • Given the hierarchical and often competitive nature of Guitlaro society, martial prowess is highly valued. Many young Anthrals undergo rigorous training in various forms of combat, not just for defense but as a means of personal development and social status. Competitions and duels are common, serving as both entertainment and a way to resolve disputes.
  4. Cultural Festivals:
    • Festivals are a key aspect of Guitlaro culture, with each planet or station hosting its own annual celebrations that highlight their unique heritage. These festivals often include processions, feasts, and competitions, and they serve to reinforce community bonds and cultural pride.
  5. Technology and Magi Integration:
    • The Guitlaro Entente has seamlessly integrated advanced technology and magi into their daily lives. This fusion is evident in everything from their architecture and transportation systems to their communication methods and entertainment. The use of magi is not seen as supernatural but as a natural extension of the Anthral species’ abilities, with its use being both practical and ceremonial.

Social Structure

  1. Clan Loyalty:
    • Loyalty to one's clan is paramount in Guitlaro society. Clans function as extended families, with members often living, working, and training together. The success of the clan reflects on every member, and there is a strong sense of responsibility to contribute to the clan’s prestige and power.
  2. Inter-Clan Relations:
    • While competition between clans is fierce, it is also regulated by strict codes of conduct. Alliances, marriages, and trade agreements are common ways to strengthen ties between clans, though rivalries can be equally intense. These relationships are carefully managed to maintain the overall stability of the Entente.
  3. Gender and Roles:
    • Gender roles in Guitlaro society are fluid, with abilities and merit taking precedence over gender in determining an individual’s role and status. However, certain clans may have traditional roles that are gender-specific, though these are generally seen as cultural rather than restrictive.
  4. The Role of the Heriness:
    • The Heriness serves as both a leader and a symbol of unity, transcending clan loyalties and embodying the collective will of the Anthral species. The Heriness’s decisions are respected across all levels of society, and their role is seen as a divine mandate to guide the Anthrals towards a prosperous future.

Cultural Tensions and Challenges

  1. Racial Hierarchy:
    • While the Puritanian Clans hold the highest status, this has led to underlying tensions with the other sub-races of Anthrals, particularly those who feel marginalized or oppressed. The Guitlaro Entente’s strict hierarchy, while maintaining order, can also be a source of resentment and conflict.
  2. The Pursuit of Purity:
    • The emphasis on purity, particularly among the Puritanians, can create a sense of exclusion for those with mixed heritage or who possess unusual mutations. These individuals may face social stigma or pressure to conform, leading to a struggle between individuality and societal expectations.
  3. External Threats:
    • The Guitlaro Entente’s emphasis on self-sufficiency and independence often puts it at odds with external forces, be they other Ententes or galactic powers. This has fostered a culture of vigilance and preparedness, with a strong focus on defense and security.
