Article of the day

In Tavari culture, the term “money honour” refers to a set of cultural practices, rituals, and traditions regarding the exchange of money, and with the conduct of business between people more generally. Many of the traditions associated with money honour are codified as part of the Tavat Avati faith, but observance is quite common among Tavari Akronists as well. Historically observed across all social classes and (with regional variations) across the entire Tavari-speaking world, the ubiquitousness of money honour has caused it to become considered by many Tavari people a central, defining part of Tavari identity. Historians and sociologists have pointed to money honour as part of the reason why the so-called “Tavari System of doing business”—a euphemistic phrase used to describe the bribery and kickbacks that by the 19th century had become common when conducting business to the point of being generally considered mandatory—became part of the prevailing culture of the country. Money honour remains ubiquitous in Tavari culture in the modern day, but is widely considered to be on the decline among younger generations.
