Denmarket

Denmarket: noun. A denmarket is a very popular modern day phenomenon amongst socially mobile badgers from higher income backgrounds. It is basically the badgers´ equivalent of our market for houses, although the badger system is far more organised and systematic than the sporadic sale of plots of land as is common in human societies. What is particular about the denmarket is that it is a Turkish-style centralised bazaar which badgers from all around the region visit to see the mudprints (equivalent of our blueprints) of their potential dens and where they can make payments on the spot with truffles, insects or other valuable objects. The den they leave is then left over to either their offspring, the elderly or the less socially privileged who are cared for thus by the highly dependable social system highly characteristic of the Nordic regions.
