The Daxian people are an ethnolinguistic group native to Audonia who share a common language, culture and ancestry. They are the majority group in the nations of Daxia and a significant minority in Canpei, Timbia and Rusana. Several diaspora groups of varying sizes exist in other places in Audonia and overseas. The Daxian ethnonym is a corruption of the name Da Xié meaning Great Harmony, which was the name of the first ever recorded dynasty to form in Daxia. The historical point of origin of the Daxian people is believed to be located in central Daxia where the first organized polities took shape and created the precursor states that preceded the Xie dynasty. The early Daxian people developed for the most part in isolation, shielded as they were by mountains to the west, the sea to the east and south and the vast distances of the empty steppes to the north. This isolation led to the development of a cultural insularity that permeates 'Daxian-ness' to the modern day, and is expressed in many aspects of Daxian life and historic trends, from political concepts tinged with notions of superiority such as Zhangwo, to historical relations with other peoples dictated by Daxian need to dominate and subjugate them, to an intense dislike and distrust of foreigners even today.
