सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The 'road' was the primary state of being for nomads. A 'long road' wasn't an inconvenience; it was where life happened. A person coming from a 'long road' is treated as a 'God-sent guest' (Qudayi qonaq) and must be fed before being asked questions. Before a 'long road', it is customary to receive a blessing from the oldest family member to ensure the road is 'white' (safe). Due to the country's massive size (9th largest in the world), 'long roads' are a daily reality for many who travel between regions.
