Large FamiliesA saying common throughout Rahen is 'like a Ghankedhen family', which means that two people have some ties, but they don't really know each other. It originated from the large extended families which other people in Rahen often view as unwieldy and impossible to know everyone. They are however wrong in that aspect as while the families are large, they are also tight-knit and often meet.

Ghankedhen RangersDeveloped from the rural lifestyle of the medieval Ghankedhen tribes, the Rangers were the mobile forward guard of the Ghankedhen kingdom. They would scout the terrain in front of marching armies and clear the area for the main force, allowing for much faster movement of troops. The Rangers also functioned as special operation forces for assignments normal regiments lack the finesse to execute.

The Establishment of New InstitutionsWhen the Ghankedhen tribes were first fully unified into a central kingdom, they realised they lacked many of the organizational structures that other states have. They instituted a rigorous program of reform to develop the institutions that they saw as necessary.

Local DrillThe Family of the Ghankedhen is broken up in local pockets the size of a village. In large towns and cities these familial units can make up neighbourhoods or even city blocks in the cities of the 19th century AA. These familial units are responsible for training their young men and preparing them for the Family's army, known as the Cousins. The fame that delivering great soldiers to the Cousins means that local units will often compete in maintaining the best drill of the family.

Blackpowder ReformsWith the introduction of gunpowder weapons in Rahen, the Ghankedhen realised that they would mean a great shift in the ways of war. So one by one they began to adapt their tribal structures and to train with these new weapons. In a series of pronouncements called the Blackpowder Reforms, the generals of the different tribes sat down together and devised a new tactic that revolved around familial units trading weapons and reloading swiftly to optimise the firepower of a unit and to ensure that the best marksmen would always be the one to aim and fire.

Eager ReservesThe Ghankedhen put family first and foremost. And they are all eager to prove their loyalty in the front lines. This meant that there was always a group of camp followers ready and willing to put down their sewing, cooking, smithing and writing and to take up pikes, sabers and guns.

Manufactories of RahenWhile historically a poor country of shepherds and tribes, the hills of the Ghankedhen held some of the largest iron and coal reserves in Rahen. During the 18th century these deposits began to be exploited and the rural lands of the Ghankedhen became the great factories and foundries of Rahen, developing in an urban and industrial area rivalling those of Cannor.
