	The deep ties gender has within Unathite culture can also be exploited when resolving contracts and disputes. Often this can take the form of discrediting someone’s suitability for a job, an inferred inability to complete work, and breaches of contract where gender is pertinent. Contract manipulation is common and Mazjivsa scribes are customarily retained to ensure proper resolution where possible. They are familiar with popular ploys to either nullify contracts or collect compensation for failure to fulfill obligations and other violations.		The deep ties gender has within Unathite culture can also be exploited when resolving contracts and disputes. Often this can take the form of discrediting someone’s suitability for a job, an inferred inability to complete work, and breaches of contract where gender is pertinent. Contract manipulation is common and Mazjivsa scribes are customarily retained to ensure proper resolution where possible. They are familiar with popular ploys to either nullify contracts or collect compensation for failure to fulfill obligations and other violations.

	One particularly infamous case is widely taught to new scribes during apprenticeship; a contract was created to provide a lord with twenty skilled fishers (engineers) for the construction of new perimeter walls around his compound. Once the crucial process of sinking the foundations and construction of the lower levels was done, progress on the project began to slow and then cease as the fishers were constantly arguing, accusing one another of sabotaging their work, insulting their clan, and myriad other minor slights which climaxed in a spontaneous battle; one worker dead, and two with serious injuries. The lord claimed “they were clearly better suited to spears than tools,” and demanded that the contract be nullified and that half of what he paid be returned in addition to punitive payments stipulated in the contract for the breach. Initially the restitutions were made and the construction of the walls was finished by the lord’s own specialists. It wasn’t until later when a ~~Zo’kaa~~ investigated the incident that the funds were returned and the Lord’s involvement was made known. Under contract from the construction guild, the ~~Zo’kaa~~ uncovered the reason for the change in the fishers’ attitude; an agent, part of the twenty fishers from the guild, had been paid to bring the workers under scrutiny. Once work on the base of the walls was complete, the rest was markedly simpler and cheaper. The lord would have paid less than half the agreed upon amount in the end. Diligent scribes will formalize contract specific processes to resolve potential gender related breaches but this relies on the skill of the scribe hired and is by no means a complete solution.

	Other examples of contract manipulation include marriage and betrothal contracts. These contracts often stipulate the genders of the couple and allowances made for surrogates of children, the “Marriage Price”, and additional considerations. If the gender of one party shifts, either naturally or by design, the contract can be nullified and recompense paid.		Other examples of contract manipulation include marriage and betrothal contracts.

	[[Contact War\|The Contact War, which has more information here,]] was a cataclysmic global war that lasted from '''2438 to 2449'''. The fighting was between two global powers, the '''Izweski Hegemony''', and the '''Traditionalist Coalition'''. The war was fought over the very future of the Unathi and their relationship with the rest of the galaxy. The Izweski demanded Moghes submit to a one-world government ran by themselves and embrace the influence of humanity. The Traditionalist Coalition rejected this. '''The war went nuclear on September 5th, 2439''', causing immense suffering across Moghes and directly leading to the creation of The Wasteland, which is set to engulf Moghes within a hundred years.

	Unathi, being deeply traditional, tend to inject their own sayings, proverbs, and similar speech into other languages not native to them. Some concepts of their languages also spill over into tongues foreign to Unathi. For example, Unathi genders follow personal behaviors and societal roles rather than biological sex. While “man”, “male”, and other similar words might serve as a rough translation, “warrior” or the Sinta-Unathi word “Saa” would be more correct and often finds its way into conversation between Unathi and other races. The same is true for “healer” or “Taa”, being somewhat equivalent “woman”, or “female”, while “fisher” or “Kaa” is the Unathi term for someone whose duties revolve around production, commodities, or economic development. Objects also have assigned genders to them, so it is not uncommon for Sinta to refer to objects and inanimate things with genders. Unathi also have a lot of assorted figures of speech that, instead of being based on direction (up and down), are affiliated with time and its speed. A faster rate of time is seen as bad while a slower rate is seen as good in a majority of cases. Good things are categorized by saying something is punctual, progressing on time, is speeding up in time, or has a lot of time while saying the opposite for bad things. Rather than saying "I’m going to bed for the night," a Unathi might offer "I’m slowing down for the night"; similarly, instead of being "down to hang out," one would instead say they "want to slow down" with someone else. Examples include, but aren’t limited to: "today’s harvests were timely," "the day has been slow," "my body is slowing," "their sleep is running late," "I’m accelerating through my studies."
