− | Within this stron there is a division into light green and dark green. Light green adherents believe that Mamkoon is a single physical location for everyone, whereas dark green followers consider Mamkoon to be personal. So, according to a light green Xaewoon believer there would be a location that all other green stron followers should travel to. Dark green believers would search for a location that is specific for their personal religious journey, which makes the dark green interpretation very close to the blue stron, if not in form, than in spirit. | + | Within this stron there is a division into light green and dark green.

| Throughout history light green has proven to be a more violent version of the faith. Unlike Xaewoon Blue, Xaewoon Green has a specific term for true believers, Trenonoh or Trenona, which means "people of the path". Light green devotees were the majority during the second revolution, but with the turn of the third revolution the dynamics began to change, and today dark green constitutes the majority, making the religion a bit more tolerant. | | Throughout history light green has proven to be a more violent version of the faith.
