The people of Bali were happy and gay and had a peaceful life. They were not allowed to fight. At one time there had been terrible wars in Bali. Then the people decided it was wrong to fight or have wars. They made rules to keep apart those who wanted to fight.
Bali was divided into seven small kingdoms. The land around each kingdom was kept empty, and no one lived there. Since the kingdoms did not share the same borders, the people could not fight over them.
In Bali, even children were not allowed to fight. If two children started a fight over a toy, someone would separate them. When two boys argued, they would agree not to speak to each other. Sometimes they did not talk together for months. This gave the boys a chance to for get their anger.
Families who were angry with each other also promised not to speak. Their promise was written down, and the whole village knew about it. If they broke their promise, they had to offer gifts to their gods.
