Majority of these clans were [[Mercenary Ninja|mercenary military forces]] even before the [[First Shinobi World War]].<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 398, page 11</ref> The [[Senju clan]] and [[Uchiha clan]] were the first known clans to have agreed to settle and form [[Konohagakure|a shinobi village]], facilitated by creating agreements with the [[daimyō]] of [[Land of Fire|the land they inhabit]]. Many clans would follow the example of the Senju and the Uchiha, later establishing the [[Five Great Shinobi Countries]] as they are known today. Membership in a clan is usually determined by blood relations and genetics, which is vital in the usage of [[kekkei genkai]] and [[hiden|secret]] techniques. These attributes and abilities made many clans feared and renowned throughout many villages. While clans may be composed of many individuals and extended families, many clans mentioned and seen in the series were somewhat limited to a nuclear family.<section end=summary /> {{#arraymap: {{ArrayRemove| {{#ask:[[Category:Clans]]|sep=,|link=none}}|{{PAGENAME}}, }} |,|!|<nowiki/> === ! === {{Infobox icon|!|Icon Type=Ninja clan|size=70|text=right}} {{Main with-include|!}}{{-}}| }} __NOEDITSECTION__ == References == <references/> [[Category:Clans| ]] [[de:Clans]] Summary: Minor edit Follow this page Cancel
