Tribe

The competing teams in the  Survivor games are known as  Tribes. There are two tribes. A  tribe can have anywhere from four to ten people at the beginning of the game.

STARTING TRIBES
Each Survivor season starts with at leat 10  contestants (dubbed as the "castaways" or "survivors") stranded in a location and will be left there for  the day. The castaways will be then equally divided into teams "tribes". These tribes then will be sent out to separate camps identified by a colored tribe flag.

NAMES AND IDENTIFICATIONS
Starting tribes are given unique names (based on location, tribe type, histroy etc.)  and identifying colors which are used on tribe flags, challenge props, a nd various other items. Each player is given a ribbon with the color of their tribe, that can be put as a necklace or a bracelet.

MERGED TRIBE
The Merged tribe will be composed of the remaining members of the two starting tribes. Since combining as one, the two opposing tribes will no longer be, as they will be staying a single group and will live in one camp until the finale. They will be given a new, blank tribe flag and ribbons. Reward challenges can be still a group effort (depending on the number of remaining players) and Immunity Challenges  <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:13.63636302947998px;line-height:20.99431800842285px;">will be conducted on an individual basis.
