functions provided to their members

Clans often provide their members with a sense of identity and financial support.

In addition, many areas of rural Sharifistan had low crime rates from the mid 1930s to the late 1940s and from the early 1950s to the late 1960s due to the fact many people were related to each other through the clan system and so did not want to harm each other through crime.

Clans and violence

There is also, however, violence committed by certain members of some clans as form of revenge. Feuding between clans often leads to thousands of people killed on both sides. The most recent example resulted in 150,000 people dead.
