Societies create characters and plots, provide space for action, and reflect history. Building vibrant and interesting societies is a core element of worldbuilding in the fantasy genres. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This guide walks the reader through different aspects of societies to help construct fictional worlds with greater ease.
