Line 28:

: The Great Chenango are constituent members of the [[Chenango Confederacy]] and consist of about 4.8 million people, and make up a majority of the population of the Confederacy. WIP

; <dfn>Hasinai</dfn>

: The Hasinai are a people in northern [[Caracua]] numbering 20,000. They settled in their current homeland after migrating from southern [[Maloka]] around the Fourteenth Century and at their height numbered 110,000. They were one of the few groups to resist [[Algoquona|Algosh]] invasion directly, and as a result, were crushed and a large number of them (as many as thirty thousand) being spread across Algoquona and disintegrated as a community. The remaining community is one of the poorest in ~~Ashkenang~~.

; <dfn>Honeoye</dfn>

: The Honeoye are a constituent group of [[New Harren]] and number at approximately half a million. They were previously one of the four main constituent groups of the [[Nysdra Provisional Republic]], were a people dominated by [[Algoquona]], and were a founding member of the [[Northern Confederation]]. They are unique among the peoples of Cusinaut as they have no known relations to other tribal groups or peoples; they are one of the few fully freestanding peoples in Cusinaut. Their lands exist on the eastern shore of Cusinaut just to the northeast of the pre-war border of [[New Harren]]. With a large coastal territory, the Honeoye are known to be some of the most experienced mariners and navigators of the [[Nysdra]], being some of the most prodigious and most productive fishermen of the northern Crona area. Consequently, the Honeoye are well-known for having a fish-based diet. Within the practices of [[M'acunism]], the Honeoye are also well-known for their large sacrifices of fish, and during the 20th century, the Honeoye experienced large economic growth as a major exporter of fish for sacrifice to the other members of the [[Northern Confederation]]. The coastal cities of the Honeoye are well developed as a result and many of them have relatively modern port infrastructure and urban life by Occidental standards. The Honeoye hinterlands, however, are much like the hinterlands of the rest of Cusinaut - dense boreal forests with scattered villages who live largely along traditional lines, both in terms of social organization as well as technological development. Due to the relative wealth of the Honeoye, they were unique among the peoples of the Northern Confederation inasmuch as they were ruled by a King, rather than by a council or high chief. The Honeoye were extremely influential within the Confederation and began to be perceived as a threat by the 1970s. The Honeoye were perceived as the rival of the Algosh for control over the Confederation, with the former having commercial power and the latter military power. The tensions between the Honeoye and the rest of the Confederation were one of the points of contention that lead to the collapse of the Confederation and the War of the Northern Confederation. The Algosh conquered these extremely lucrative territories during the chaotic period in the late 2000s. The Honeoye were ruled by their own ethnic chief during this period of Algosh occupation, but had the least autonomy of any of the subject chiefs due to the threat posed to Algosh control. After independence, the ruler of the Honeoye has adopted the title of Regent rather than of King on a provisional basis.
