Apsects of Cultures

Language: Verbal, written, & physical movements(body language) used to communicate between creatures.
* this doesn't mean that it is communication between creatures of the same species.
Economics: The supply & demand that goes on within or between groups of peoples. That is not limited to within the same culture, geographic area, or within fantasy the same species.
Kinship & Descent : This is how a culture determines relationships between people, who is related to who & how or why, and how lineage is tracked.
Religion & Magick: The supernatural belief system of a culture. What do they believe in and how do they manifest that belief in the physical realm.
Social Structure: The way a group organizes itself. This is possibly one of the more complicated aspects because one culture can have many groups that organize themselves differently within a culture for many reasons.
