Caracua is a deeply diverse country containing more than a dozen major ethnic groups as well as more than a hundred varied peripheral peoples, some of whom are isolated (and nearly {{wp|uncontacted peoples}}) transient tribes while others are minorities from neighboring countries, most prominently the [[Algosh Republic]]. Caracua does not have a single majority cultural group. Rather, the fourteen primary cultural groups are generally referred to as the "Great Nations". The Great Nations, which more or less form a cohesive "mainstream culture" in Caracua, were all previously major members of the [[Northern Confederation]]. As such, the Great Nations have a very long tradition of unity in diversity, and cohesion of different peoples for a single purpose is not only the founding political ideology of the Caracuan state but also a fundamental cornerstone value of its society.

=== Great Nations ===
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.

=== 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.

Caracua is a vary M'acunist nation and its culture shows. Ashkenauk M'acunism mainly follows the Man School with small minorities from the Plant School and Nature School. Despite being mainly M'acunist, small christian minorities have appeared but have been mostly unsuccessful in expansion, mostly due to the rough terrain and semi-autonomous republics within Caracua.
