[QUOTE="Horwath, post: 8683394, member: 6801299"] I would say that elves could be "conservative" because of rate that they have children, or better yet at what age they start having children. If elves mature at 20 similar to humans, but they are considered "adults" when they pass into their second century, that is when we can expect them to have children. And if humans are treated as adults at 20(but today, that line has moved towards 30), and elves at 100, then we have 5× speed difference for new generations to come into society, and with them new ideas and new views of the world. And it is not that older people cannot change or have new views, they sure do, but they do need newer younger generations to give them the idea and/or small nudge for it. OFC, elves might not be that slow with accepting new ideas as they live next to more "quick" races, and if they do not want to be overrun by history they will pickup the pace of ever changing world.
