The Sugondese people are an ethnic group that resides primarily in northern Crona. They constitute the majority group in the Alpachnee Confederation. Minority Sugondese populations also exist in neighboring Mid-Atrassic Crona and Daxian Xisheng. The Sugondese religious makeup is evenly divided between Christianity, Islam and Arzalism.

History

The Sugondese people are an offshoot of the Ligma peoples who may have lived in the eastern regions of what is now Venua'tino before separating from the main group after a violent schism or simply migrating south in search of warmer climates. It is these early Sugondese settlers that eventually formed Dis-Nut, the first organized kingdom in the Alpachnee region. The Dis-Nut kingdom initially encompassed only the northwestern sector of Alpachnee but through conquest it would reach the eastern coast of Crona, making maritime trade with the Varshani states to the south possible. This expansion also exposed the Sugondese to Arzalism, which was embraced by several southern tribes. This new faith would play an important factor in causing strife in the kingdom as communal violence and religious pogroms began to regularly break out.

Religion

Aproximately 35 percent of Sugondese people are adherents of the Catholic Church followed by Islam with 28 percent with the vast majority declaring to be Sunni and small groups following the Shia offshoot, Congregation of Tranquility. The rest are evenly divided between the Varshani sects of Arzalism and M'acunism.
