Nomad vs. Sedentary Space

Nomads distribute people in open, indefinite spaces, marked by traits that shift with movement.
Sedentary societies divide and regulate closed spaces with walls, roads, and boundaries.
Nomadic space is tactile and haptic, relying on local operations and relations rather than fixed points.
The State seeks to striate space, controlling flows and restricting nomadic speed and movement.
These spatial differences underpin contrasting social, economic, and military systems.
