Non-ethnic Varshanis ("NEVs") refers to Varshani nationals who have no identifiable national homeland but are not ethnically Varshani. These people originate from the hundreds, perhaps thousands, of identifiable [[Crona]]n ethnolinguistic groups enslaved or conquered by Zurgite Varshan. The origin of these people shared with some of the prehistoric people of [[Quetzenkel]], plus many more who were conquered and acculturated so long ago that any knowledge of them is lost. Many of these people are related to the descendant nations of the [[North Songun civilization]], taken into slavery during the period of [[The Hunt (Varshan)|the Hunts]]. | Non-ethnic Varshanis ("NEVs") refers to Varshani nationals who have no identifiable national homeland but are not ethnically Varshani.

Foreign Varshanis are a small group of Varshani nationals who are ethnically not Cronan at all but nonetheless originate in Varshan. Most of these peoples are descended from [[Occidental]] or [[Alshar]]i slaves who intermarried. | Foreign Varshanis are a small group of Varshani nationals who are ethnically not Cronan at all but nonetheless originate in Varshan.

===Diaspora=== | |||
Because the Zurgite government placed heavy restrictions on foreign travel by ordinary subjects, the Varshani diaspora in other nations is small. The largest overseas population with ancestral origins in Varshan were the Kulukusi people, a tribe of moon-worshippers whose civilisation was destroyed by God-King Burusho IV for heresey against the Sun God. The Kulukusi survived as a tribal people in the mountains of southeast Varshan, and aided the Kiravian Army Rangers during the [[Bootleg Wars]]. As a token of gratitude, the [[Federal Stanora]] helped to resettle the Kulukusi in [[South Ateranda]] and [[Intravia]]. There is also a significant Kulukusi community in [[Azikoria]]. | |||
