Where? Pastoralism's refers to a grazing animal culture- nomadic or semi-nomadic depending on grazing capacity- the pasture or grazing lands. In Africa the old Hottentots were cattle herders. In Tibet the sheep herders were the main groups before the Chinese invaded. Mongolia still has a large group of mixed cattle, sheep and horse herders. Uighers are one tribe, Chinese trying to suppress them a bit. In Swiss area in Europe a 'Alpine' herd economy developed- summer graze in high mountain meadows, winter graze in the valleys. This same pattern of graze exists today in western United states in Rocky Mountain region for large sheep herds. Pastoralists that have there wealth in herds can be a minor problem for a controlling government -they have the capability of moving out of government reach and taking their wealth with them. Settled farmers can't take their land away so government can control them easier. .

Qashqai /qash qa: ee/ (also spelled Ghashghai, Kashgai, Qashqay and Qashqa'i) are a Turkic-speaking tribal confederation of clans in Iran. Qashqais mainly live in the provinces of Fars, Khuzestan and southern Isfahan, but especially around the city of Shiraz in Fars.

The Qashqai were originally nomadic pastoralists and some remain so today. The traditional nomadic Qashqai travelled with their flocks each year from the summer highland pastures north of Shiraz roughly 480 km or 300 mi south to the winter pastures on lower (and warmer) lands near the Persian Gulf, to the southwest of Shiraz. The majority, however, have now settled, or are partially settled. The trend towards settlement has been increasing markedly since the 1960s.

The Qashqai are made up of a number of tribes and sub-tribes including the Amalaeh, Darreh-Shuri, Kashkuli, Shesh(6) Baluki, Farsimadan, Qaracheh, Rahimi and Safi -Khani.

In the US, the Cherokee were a good example. They were non-nomadic farmers that planted crops and raised livestock (particulary after introduction by the colonists). In addition, they had a written language and a democratic style government. Savages they weren't, not by a long shot.
