Caphiric people are known for their shared heritage to the [[Latinic people|ancient Latinic civilization]], their use of the Latinic languages, and their culture and customs. As the predominant ethnic group in [[Caphiria]], they play a pivotal role in the state's collective identity. Caphiric people see themselves as both custodians and successors ("custos et heres") to the Latins, and their shared heritage, language, and customs reflect this historical evolution and is a defining element of the modern Caphirian state. Consequently, Latinic identity plays a fundamental role in [[Caphirian nationality law]]: all Latinic nationals are legally recognized as citizens of the Imperium, a status distinct from non-citizen Latinic descendants or ethnic Latins residing outside Caphiria. | ||
All Caphiric people (and the majority of Latin nationals) speak [[Caphiric Latin]], the most widely-spoken modern [[Latinic people|Latinic]] language. It is primarily mutually intelligible with Classical Latin, which had been the de facto language of Sarpedon. [[Vulgar Latin]], a less standard and literary version of Classical Latin developed into what is now the Romance languages.The majority of Latin nationals are native speakers of Latin, though many Latins also speak other languages native to Latium (often colloquially referred to as "Latinic dialects"). | All Caphiric people (and the majority of Latin nationals) speak [[Caphiric Latin]], the most widely-spoken modern [[Latinic people|Latinic]] language.

Beyond language, the Caphiric people have a profound connection to Latium's history, manifesting in their customs, legal traditions, and societal structures. Their laws, reflecting the principle of jus sanguinis, not only codify citizenship but also embody the collective ethos of a civilization that values lineage and cultural continuity. This principle has resulted in a robust sense of national identity, one that distinguishes Caphiric nationals from other Latinic peoples who, while sharing a common descent, do not possess Caphirian citizenship. | ||
