The Tribe of Spartia
The Tribe of Spartia, who descent from Spartia himself. The Spartianian tribe is feared even by the Zhedakm for they are mighty and strong warriors whose skills of combat prowess are far greater than the Zhedakm themselves. they live in seclusion from the other tribes within the continent of Wrwiwak'Ladir, upon the mountains of Wrwiwak'Thoropa'shk ("Snow Tooths") where they meditate and live their lives serving the Angellonian God. The Angellonian priesthood are only Spartianians and they live on Orijhin within the temple, performing sacrifices and meditating and worshipping the Angellonian God. They see themselves as those who will spiritually bring salvation to the Empire and to other foreign nations and will be the ones to cleanse the heavens by force if peace does not work.
Their flag/crest is the Angellonian Star; they do not add anything additional to their flag as a sign of humble modesty. the four diamonds within the star each represent the four main clans within the tribe, but some say it also represents the 32 priests that work in The Great Holy Temple.
Structure
The High Priest is the chieftain of the Spadakm tribe and the priesthood govern the laws within the tribe. The Spartianian commanders lead the army and enforce the laws under the guidance of the High Priest or a prophet chosen by their God. The Zealots however are somewhat separate and only answer to the Angellonian God or a prophet He sends to them.
Culture
They are a very religious and spiritual culture who despise heresy and blasphemy, exiling or even stoning heretics, blasphemers or infidels to death. they are seen by the other tribes as "extremists" of the Angellonian faith.
Public Agenda
They are to preach the Angellonian religion to the tribes and to foreign worlds and to spread the good word of the Angellonian faith. they have teachers who go into Khosakm schools to teach the basics of the Angellonian religion to the youth as a separate class that is mandated by the Empire.
Military
The Spadakm military is not well known due to their lack of involvments in war, they mainly do the spiritual side: praying for the empire and against the enemies of the empire, inspiring soldiers to be confident in their faith and their mission, helping the families of soldiers back home and only when the threat has potential to attack the homeworld does the Spadakm army become involved, extincting entire empires.
The Zealots are sent on rare occasions only going when a prophet, or "The Divine Father" directly commands them their mission. they usually go in groups of four and rarely groups of eight (for the most important of missions) fighting demons, fighting against other religious factions or seeking and destroying the unholy black scrolls.
Religion
They are devout followers of "The Divine One", being that Spartia wrote most of the Angellonian holy books such as the book of origin and the Spartianian holy book of "faith and Virtues". they are the most religious and spiritual of all of the other tribes combined. their tribe is entasked by their God to be the priesthood and to settle spiritual/religious tasks of their society.
Education
Every Spadakm child is taught the holy scrolls from an early age, and when they become of age they are expected to be very knowledgeable of the holy scrolls at least able to recite from memory one scroll in its entirety.
Infrastructure
in every colony that the empire controls, there is at least one monastery where they can perform individual sacrifices for people that live on those colonies.

Legislative Body
The Priesthood and the High priest write any laws "The Divine One" commands to be written down. they also create ordinances/laws/mandates for the tribe to follow during the reign of that high priest, and when that high priest is no longer in charge, then those ordinances/mandates/laws are disposed of unless a debate is made to keep certain commands of that former high priest.
Judicial Body
The priesthood will allow a court to be settled for an accused Spadakm for any non-religious crime supposedly done: debating the innocence of the accused and if persuaded with enough evidence, then the priesthood will debate and come to an agreed judgement to the criminal. many punishments tend to be servitude, recompansing goods destroyed/stolen fourfold and only death for the most wicked crimes such as murder or rape or breaking of religious laws.
Executive Body
The Commanders or Zealots are sent to enforce the laws of the tribe, and of the faith: going into other tribes and capturing heretics and blasphemers to be judged by the priesthood then sent to their deaths.
