Naming Customs
Modern Post-Exodian culture has deviated considerably from it's exodian roots due to centuries of diversification. Most Post-Exodians have a first, middle, and last name.

Family Structure
The Post-Exodian family structure is relatively basic compared to many other cultures. Every family consists of a mother and father, with typically one to three children. The father is usually the head of the household but the mother might assume family leadership in the father's absence or death. Widows are not nearly as helpless as in other cultures, due to their equivalent rights enabling them to work any profession. Boys and girls are usually raised by the father and mother respectively. Boys are expected to learn and carry on the family profession, in some cases they may pursue a different profession during their childhood if they have a strong desire for said profession and their family does not disapprove. Girls are expected to learn domestic customs and find themselves a man to care for them when they come of age, but in many cases they may instead desire to work and therefore pursue a profession. Marriages of the lower and middle strata are usually not arranged and are commonly determined by mutual love. It is common for the parents of a girl to object to many of her romantic interests, be it competitors to the family profession or for other strategic reasons. In the end these desires and concerns do not overrule the girl's right to freely choose her love interest.
Gender Roles
Both genders have equivalent standing and occasionally interchange roles. Men usually work while women assume domestic roles, but while men are expected to assume working responsibility, women are not barred from working and could pursue a profession. In the military field, it is somewhat uncommon but not impossible to encounter female knights and soldiers. In the noble stratum, women are almost always expected to marry via arranged marriage and assume a domestic role. This is due to the prospective power gain provided by forming ties with other noble families and achieving political alliances. Noble families cannot afford their female heirs assuming a working role for this reason. In the royal stratum the aforementioned noble customs may not apply and depending on the nation it is entirely possible for the ruling position to be matriarchal or patriarchal.
