The Special Federal District of Cao has a mostly homogenous Corummese majority derived from centuries of pro-colonization policies and ethnic cleansing. Of the original Axolotl inhabitants there remains extant population that does not exceed 10% of the island's total. Small numbers of descendants of slaves from local nations such as Varshan and Quetzenkel also exist, usually in precarious economic situations. The Varshani component is expected to rise with the possible resettlement of more Varshanis after the end of the wars of the Deluge. Rusani settlement was also allowed and even nurtured as in the past the ethnicity served to create an extra layer of contact between the Corummese and locals. Intermixing was banned until 1998 when controls were loosened, though it is still looked down upon and discouraged by most families. The island's society has a clear cut stratification of its ethnic groups with the Corummese at the top followed by the Rusani and Axolotl, Varshanis and Quetzi occupy the lower rungs of the social pyramid. | |||

The island's economy revolves around fishing, shipping and some minor manufacturing operations in addition to the dockyards operated by the Corummese Navy. Cao's fishing fleet is one of the largest in the region and fans far out through the Nysdra Sea and the Northern approaches during the fishing seasons. | |||
