[edit] Hierarchy & Values
Dalmasca is divided into Archadians, most of whom choose to live in the capital city of Rabanastre, and native Dalmascans, who have been forced by the Archadian's standing and wealth to live in slums and scattered villages. A certain number of above-ground homes have been reserved for Dalmascans in Rabanastre by order of Emperor Larsa, but those that choose to live among the Archadians are reviled by both their neighbors and kin. Aside from this social split, Dalmascan society is extremely accepting of all types of people and all walks of life. It is diversity, they believe, that makes them great. This is one of the primary reasons that the assimilating force of the Archadian Empire is so strongly resented by them.
Virtues prized by Dalmascans include altruism, acceptance, temperance, hope, love, patience, mercy, and creativity.
Some traits which are looked down upon are cruelty, venality, frugality, hate.
[edit] Gender & Sexuality
Naive and generally accepting, the sexes and all manner of relationships which pass between them, while sometimes incomprehensible, are seen as natural by Dalmascans. Love is considered the most important asset of their society and should not be denied on the basis of the form in which it appears.
[edit] Stereotypes
Dalmascans are widely thought of as naive, empathetic, charitable, willful, overly idealistic, and foolish. In short, a society doomed by its own childish optimism.
