Religion
The underlying principle of Rireinu society is
ñi, which has been variously translated as propriety, social order, hierarchy, or religion. [snip]
Ñi does certainly include all of these aspects; it can also be seen as an all-encompassing view of the world, where everyone (and everything) has her own place, with duties to those above her and responsibilities to those below her; where civic virtue is also spiritual merit and an act of kindness to a stranger is also an act of religious worship.
