Carrier- Person that gets assigned by the union to have 10 kids in 10 years because of their superior intelligence, beauty, and strength over all the other girls and after they become what's called an utter. During the ten years, the carriers are pampered extremely with the freshest food, maids, etc.
The Union- Like the United States, but controls people in awkward ways.
The General- Ultimate male superior to everyone except the person in charge of the union.
Laborer- Person of either gender that did not become a soldier or carrier and is forced to work for the union.
Before the job assignments- Young children go to schools for boys and schools for girls where they learn about the union, how to succeed in union life, and how to become a carrier/soldier in the next 16 years.
Utter- A former carrier who breast feeds newborn babies.
Note: Carriers and Soldiers reproduce with eachother.
Note 2: If a carrier goes against the union, the get threshed, which means the general puts hot coal on their tongue and burns them. (harsh, I know.)
