The Ligonians are the humanoid inhabitants of the planet Ligon II. Although they possess transporter technology, they are extremely antiquated in other ways. They have a highly structured society and are an extremely proud race. They value their honor above all else, and as such live by strict codes of honor. They also value patience highly.
History of the Ligonian society has some similarities to that of Earth history.
Society
In Ligonian society, the females own all the property and land. When a man marries a woman, he gains control of her wealth, and it passes to him when she dies. A man may take a number of wives, and similarly a woman a number of husbands. The favoured spouse is referred to as the "first one". If a man wishes to take a new first one, the current first one has the right to challenge the newcomer in a fight to the death, although this is rare.
The standard Ligonian greeting consists of both parties raising their hands to reveal that they are not concealing a weapon. (TNG: "Code of Honor")
