Just wondering whether Pelandans are full citizens, or only citizen
foreigners like their Carmanian rulers? If they were full citizens it
would add spice to the Carmanian snobbery against the casteless
Pelandans. Perhaps there is some (percieved or purely local) advantage or
prestige to being a citizen-foreigner which explains the marked lack of
inter-marriage between these two co-existant groups. This was the
explanation for the endogamy of Greeks in Roman Egypt.
