Ligonians
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 honour above all else, and as such live by strict codes of honour. They also value patience highly.
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. (TNG:"Code of Honor")
