societal order and communication
is important to know that these descriptions are based on generic characterisation of this society, only mentioning general structures and a few details of more specific ones, but not being an exhaustive example of all their society
qai-nen oba have a historically tribal society for the most part, with some outliers where the structure can be more akin to city estates, but in general most groups are encountered in small close communities that have an informal territory of forested regions or parts of larger areas
most of their their individual communities can be considered relatively small, not exceeding a few hundreds of members and composed by around ten macro-lineages that have existed since the known inception of the community
order
their societies are generally seen in either a flat or shallow proto-political hierarchy, depending on the size and cohesion
for smaller tribes they are mostly organised by the self assignment of labour trough a sense of needing to contribute to the continuation of the whole, with a direct participation of all members in the decisions and distribution of resources, i.e. individual members have the cultural motivation to contribute to the whole by taking specific roles, and the entire community is equal in direction, with the figure of a chief/elder being a mediator and counsellor role more than a ruler
larger communities gravitate to a sub separation into internal 'clans' that are expected to fulfil roles to the whole, clans are cohesive in their relation to labour, but not in culture and individual relations, where members still see their work as contributing to the whole of the tribe. in these societies the role of the clan leader is of someone who guides the general direction of the clan's work, and communicates with other leaders, but not of societal or political control, this being deferred to a second system that is different from tribe to tribe, the most common being 'the council of chiefs'
communication
one of the interesting aspects of the qai-nen oba tribes is their relative openness and inter-relations to each other and certain other groups, where as they still keep their cohesion, do interact with other tribes as a collaboration of units, with the sharing of resources and maintenance of communication and movement routes
in a way this is helped by their large communication range, where even in relative physical isolation, it is possible for long distance groups to communicate, resulting in the spread of information and cultural relation over time
it is not unseen of tribes that are settled in close forested regions, or regions separated by fields where radio signals can easily propagate, to operate in a macro support structure
