{{defn |1=The Saranac are a constituent group of [[New Yustona]] and number at approximately 350,000 people. They are related - albeit distantly - to the Algosh peoples. Oral traditions, confirmed by scholarly research, indicate that the Saranac broke off from the Algosh due to a difference in [[M%27acunism#Ancestral_worship|Kānenaka]], a concept within the [[M'acunism|M'acunist]] religion relating to ancestor worship. This break is believed to have occurred in the 13th or 14th century. Consequently, the Saranac observe many similar festivals and cultural mores as the Algosh but with what could be described as "regional differences". During Algosh control in the 2010s, the government of [[Algoquona]] actively attempted efforts to culturally integrate the Saranac as within the Algosh people as part of {{wp|state building}} efforts. These efforts, employing differing means of education and force, were actively resisted by the Saranac on socio-political grounds moreso than religious ones, though the underlying religious differences were featured in prominent Saranac rhetoric as well. The Saranac territory sits on the northern boundary of what was the [[Nysdra Provisional Republic]]'s territory neighboring the Algosh core territories.}} | {{defn |1=The Saranac are a constituent group of [[New Yustona]] and number at approximately 350,000 people.

{{defn |1=The Schoharie are a {{wp|stateless people}} who originated in the southernmost region of what would become [[New Yustona]]. They were a founding member of the [[Northern Confederation]] and like many of their neighbors had developed an urban-based lifestyle. The Schoharie ceded a portion of their land to [[Urcea]] in the late 1800s which precipitated a large wave of out-migration. Decades later, the entire Schoharie territory was eventually conquered by the Urceans during the [[Patrick III of Urcea|Restoration]]. Since their conquest, the Schoharie people have become stateless.

A small minority of the Schoharie people moved north into Confederation territory and integrated with the Mixcalans and Tepetlcali, but some small familial groups still retain a Schoharie identity and live apart in isolated villages. The remaining group - a large minority - of Schoharie migrated into [[Porfiria]] and became mostly integrated into Coscivian society.}} | ||

{{defn |1=The Sharkota are the traditional inhabitants of several areas of mixed forest and wetland straddling the boundary between [[Iriquona]] and the Kiravian colonies of of Porfíria and the Green River Colony. They fiercely resisted Coscivian settler expansion into these areas, and continued to contest Kiravian possession of them from guerrilla camps in Iriquona. These tribal militia formed the core of what would become the [[Revolutionary Guerrilla Triads]], and Sharkota people dominate this group's senior leadership.}} | {{defn |1=The Sharkota are the traditional inhabitants of several areas of mixed forest and wetland straddling the boundary between [[Iriquona]] and the Kiravian colonies of of Porfíria and the Green River Colony.
