Wow! The prophet Muhammad told Muslims this 1400years ago.

Narrated that Anas ibn Maalik said: I heard the Messenger of God (blessings and peace be upon him) say: “Whoever would like his rizq (provision) to be increased and his life to be extended, should uphold the ties of kinship.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari (2067) and Muslim (2557).

Because those communities were so micro and population between village-village was small, your social circle mostly consisted of ie, your relatives, neighbours close family members. Food for thought.
