The fourteen Great Nations are the main constituents of the Caracua Federation and represent the fourteen largest ethnic and cultural groups within the country. The synthesis of these fourteen peoples is considered to be "mainstream Caracuan culture", whereby there is a shared broader social consensus and worldview on a number of topics while each group still retains their own traditions, mores, and even languages.

The fourteen Great Nations are: the Malki, the Rionee, the Great Ashkenauk, the Little Ashkenauk, the 5, the 6, the 7, the 8, the 9, the 10, the 11, the 12, the 13, and the 14. The Great Ashkenauk, Little Ashkenauk, and the 5 of the Great Nations share linguistic bonds and a degree of shared history, and sometimes they are collectively considered a singular "Ashkenauk" nation, and together they make up a plurality of all people within Caracua.

=== Peripheries ===
The remaining peoples of Caracua who are not part of the fourteen Great Nations are typically referred to as "peripheries" by Occidental scholars. This includes a very broad array of peoples, most prominently including [[Algosh Republic|Algosh people]] but also [[List_of_peoples_of_Cusinaut#A-D|Acuera]] nomads, the impoverished [[List_of_peoples_of_Cusinaut#E-H|Hasinai]], and many other peoples including mostly {{wp|uncontacted peoples}} at the far northern extreme of the country.

=== Sports ===
Lacrosse is the most popular sport followed by wrestling, specifically mixed martial arts has become widely popular within the borders of Caracua. The National Ashkenauk lacrosse league has gained widespread popularity. Due to the poor nature of the country the league was created and is owned by the Canasta Company, but has many shareholders within the country. This league was created shortly after the War of the Deluge as the previous league had become unprofitable and had lost a lot of infrastructure during the war. Though due to lack of capital even the new NAL league is relatively small.
