The '''Delepasians''' ([[Pelaxian language|Pelaxian]]: Delepasiano) are a [[Vallos|Vallosi]] {{wp|ethnic group}} descended from [[Pelaxian colonization of Vallos|predominantly Pelaxian settlers]] first arriving at the [[Bahía de Los Rumas]] with | The '''Delepasians''' ([[Pelaxian language|Pelaxian]]: Delepasiano) are a [[Vallos|Vallosi]] {{wp|ethnic group}} descended from [[Pelaxian colonization of Vallos|predominantly Pelaxian settlers]] first arriving at the [[Bahía de Los Rumas]] with [[Isurians|Isurian]] Captain [[Mauricio José Delepas]] in [[1497]]. Until [[1994]], they were the only group allowed to take part in [[Rumahoki]]'s politics. Delepasians make up approximately 61.6% of the total Rumahokian population, based upon the number of Rumahokians who self-identified as Delepasians in the [[Rumahokian National Census of 2028]]. [[Rumahokian Pelaxian]], Rumahoki's most widely spoken home language, evolved as the {{wp|First language|mother tongue}} of Delepasians. It originated in the [[Pelaxian language|Pelaxian vernacular]], incorporating words brought from the [[Adonerii]] and the now-extinct indigenous [[Vallosi people|Vallosi]]. | ||
The arrival of Delepas at Bahía de Los Rumas in 1497 opened a gateway of free access to Vallos from [[Pelaxia]]; however, it also necessitated the founding and safeguarding of the Pelaxian colonies from not only indigenous resistance, but also from foreign navies from [[Kiravia]] and [[Burgundie]] with the latter leading to a series of clashes lasting from the early [[16th Century]] until [[1665]]. As the colonies grew and prospered, some of the colonists, both notable and common, have began to practice intermarriage with both the remaining indigenous Vallosi and the [[Latinic people|Latins]]. Despite their diverse nationalities, these three groups have intermingled, using Pelaxian as the common language and adopting similar attitudes towards politics. The attributes they eventually shared served as a basis for the evolution of an Delepasian identity and consciousness separate from the wider [[Pelaxians|Pelaxian culture]]. | The arrival of Delepas at Bahía de Los Rumas in 1497 opened a gateway of free access to Vallos from [[Pelaxia]]; however, it also necessitated the founding and safeguarding of the Pelaxian colonies from not only indigenous resistance, but also from foreign navies from [[Kiravia]] and [[Burgundie]] with the latter leading to a series of clashes lasting from the early [[16th Century]] until [[1665]].
