Valosian Coscivians, or simply Valosians', are a Coscivian ethnic group whose historic homeland was Kórsa, particularly the [southeast part of it]. The Valosians ruled over most of Kórsa before being displaced as the country´s élite by the Vexin Coscivians , and then again after their ouster of the Vexins from most of the country.
Valosians are an extremely socially cohesive ethnic group, due in part to their intense pride in their language, heritage, and traditions, and perhaps also in large part to their abject disdain for many of the other peoples of Kiravia.
Valosians have their own customary ruler, the King of the Valosians, who reigns as a hereditary non-territorial popular monarch with an important ceremonial role and close involvement in the operation of various Valosian cultural, educational, and charitable institutions. The current King is Rando the Fatass, whose (rather copious) seat is in [Place], [State]. The Valosian King pays regular tribute to the Marble Emperor.
Ethnic Rivalries
Valosians are famous for their capacity to sustain centuries-old historic grudges against other ethnic groups. They most intense hatred is reserved for the Vexin Coscivians and the Tanstan Coscivians, though they have come to also strongly dislike most Mainline Kiravians and pretty much anyone else they encounter.
