The '''Coscivians''' or '''Coscivian peoples''' are a {{wp|Meta-ethnicity|meta-ethnicity}} comprised of the various ethnic groups that have been historically included in Coscivian civilisation and whose respective cultures draw on and contribute to the wider pan-Coscivian cultural complex. Coscivians are not a biological race, and do not constitute a single ethnic group. Communities living Coscivian culture come from disparate genetic, ethnic, linguistic, and national backgrounds, and usually have strong ethnic and communal identities nested within a broader Coscivian cultural identity. Nonetheless, the existence of a '''Coscivian people''' (''Koskiplānon'', ''Koskidérum'') is widely recognised both within and without the Coscivian world, and a {{wp|Meta-ethnicity|meta-ethnic}} Coscivian identity has existed since the First Empire. How "Coscivians" and "Coscivian people" are defined can very greatly by context. In modern Western sources, terms such as "Coscivian people" or "ethnic Coscivians" most often refer to [REDACTED] (see below). | The '''Coscivians''' or '''Coscivian peoples''' are a {{wp|Meta-ethnicity|meta-ethnicity}} comprised of the various ethnic groups that have been historically included in Coscivian civilisation and whose respective cultures draw on and contribute to the wider pan-Coscivian cultural complex.

The Coscivian peoples trace their ancestry to multiple waves of prehistoric migration from [[Crona]], [[Levantia]], and the antediluvian Arctic, the genetic legacy of which is unevenly distributed across different Coscivian subgroups. The genomes of modern Coscivian-Kiravians show a tiny but detectable admixture from the extinct hominins ''Homo sapiens sariporensis'' ("Sarolasdra Man") and ''Homo vetus montanis''. | |||

Other groups regarded as "Coscivised" or "quasi-Coscivian" include peoples subject to more recent Coscivisation as a result of Kiravian or Livensólan expansionism include the mixt Éorsan-Funapec ''Isōmiktem'' of [[Oceantropica]] and the ''Coscadem'' of [[Seawind Territory]]. The Ixōllem of the Mixogan highlands have no Éorsan blood to speak of, but have adopted the Coscivian religion [[Ruricanism]] and many other Coscivian customs. Livensólan missionary activity in Usaya has led to the adoption of Coscivian Christianity and Coscivian religions by non-Coscivians, as well as other trappings of Coscivian civilisation such as the Iatic script and calendar. Coscivised natives of Kiravian colonies are usually considered non-Coscivians for official purposes, but occasional exceptions have been made by legislation. | Other groups regarded as "Coscivised" or "quasi-Coscivian" include peoples subject to more recent Coscivisation as a result of Kiravian or Livensólan expansionism include the mixt Éorsan-Funapec ''Isōmiktem'' of [[Oceantropica]] and the ''Coscadem'' of [[Seawind Territory]].
