What cultures or ethnic group have clan system?

[Khaem]

In the past Scots and Serbs.

Had an Albanian teach me about their clan system and apparently it's still relevant there to a degree.

And a Scottish friend taught me about his clan also.

Everyone had clans at one point. Europe was dominated by clans, even in Rome. It was the Catholic church which was a central authority that destroyed the clans in Europe which led to things like rise of capitalism as people didn't just work with their clans but anyone. Business wasn't based on familial ties.

Same with China clans, Korea and Japan had the strongest clan system and Japan went through military Dictatorship called shogun and a bunch of warring clans that fought each other until Europeans came to Japan and forced them to sign Unfair treaties that looted thier resources. The japanese realised if they didn't change they'd get colonised like thier Asian neighbours so Japan brought back the emperor in the imperial restoration in 1860s which slowly destroyed the clan system and Japan became a centralised modern state instead of a bunch of clans managing their plot of land. Japan went from 1600s technology to becoming word class empire that beat Russia in just 50 years.

But you know that Japan clan was only people who are related to royal family. Just under 0.001 have clan in Japan and rest are peasant farmers without clan. It’s not the same like Somalis at all.

Saw a tiktok from a tutsi promoting tutis love. op in the comments said if your father isn't tutis than you aren't tutsi. Didn't realize some Tutsis had the same mindset as somalis

I don't remember exactly, Scottish clans is just the old regional chief you're descended from. Similar to Somali. With "Mc" being a common prefix in the clans.

The Albanian one is a collection of clans that extends into greater Albania which is Kosovo and parts of north Macadonia which Are Muslim Albanian lands occupied by orthodox Slavic. Apparently the clans doing freely marry into each other. The girl told me when her mother married her father they had to do this background check on their clans. This was months ago so I don't remember the full conversation.

This mindset is everywhere. Even day to day you realise those mixed race people with black fathers just call themselves "lightskin" Black. People roll with their fathers identity.

People roll with the identity that has institutional power, if a Asian man married a white women in America there is no way that kid is going to claim Asians

Asians, Arabs ect. Are unique case. But the Blacks who mix with white stay claiming black. It's why there's niggas who are literally pale asf aside from their wide nose or curly hair you wouldn't see anything African about them yet they still claiming "Lightskin Black"

It’s the one drop rule, besides when have you ever heard of a white women married to a black man? The guy is usually well of already or she’s doing pretty poorly and will be seen as marrying down by family members.
