Culture
Major language groups and dialects
Frankan is, predictably enough, the most prevalent language in the country, with Atlan being the 2nd most spoken. In terms of dialects, LaBraskan is one associated with the noble and high class, taking some intonation from the country's northern neighbors. A more popular dialect among the urbanites is a mixture of Atlan and Frankan to create the unique and crass-sounding Franatian accent.
Common Etiquette rules
To have one's eyes visible is a common courtesy, with sunglasses and other eye coverings almost non-existent among the people.
Ideals
Beauty Ideals
Being well-groomed is of utmost importance with an emphasis placed on hair care. The ideal skin tone is something of burnt umber, with healthy redness accenting the nose, cheeks, etc. In terms of age, mid-30's to early-40's exemplifies the mature yet explorative range that proves desirable to the culture.
Gender Ideals
A widespread idea among Frankans is for the women of the household to work alongside the man, often working in adjacent positions. This mentality also highlights the importance of thorough schooling to the Frankans, as both parents are most likely at work at the same time.
