{{defn |1=The Schoharie are a {{wp|stateless people}} who originated in the southernmost region of what would become [[New Harren]]. 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. About a half of Schoharie people remained in the territory and integrated within [[Urcea|Urcean]] society, becoming the first of the [[Nysdrine people]]. 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.}}

{{term |1=Sharkota}}
{{defn |1=The Sharkota are the traditional inhabitants of several areas of mixed forest and wetland straddling the boundary between [[Netansett]] 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 Netansett. These tribal militia formed the core of what would become the [[Revolutionary Guerrilla Triads]], and Sharkota people dominate this group's senior leadership.}}

{{term |1=Tepetlcali}}
{{term |1=Tepetlcali}}
{{defn |1=The Tepetlcali are a people native to western [[New Harren]]. They number about 350,000 people, a majority of whom still live in their original homeland which has since been settled by the Mixcala people. A founding member of the [[Northern Confederation]], the people and city of Tepetlcali exerted political hegemony over many of the tribes and cities of the southern part of the Confederation from the 1800s through the early 21st century. The city of Tepetlcali was destroyed by a joint [[Urcea|Urceo]]-Mixcalan operation during the [[War of the Northern Confederation]]. The remaining third to half of these people live across the border from New Harren in [[Netansett]], where most live as transient refugees. Their cultural origin is unknown, in part due to the immense destruction of records during the war, but oral traditions suggest they originated as one of the many isolated tribes of the southern Cusinaut area. Their closest ethnic relation appears to be the people of eastern [[Sabnaki]] based on genetic testing, though they share the same language as the Mixcalan people. In [[2032]], Tepetlcalis abroad were allowed to return to their traditional homeland as the Mixcalan condominium over the territory officially ended; prior to this, they were considered a stateless people.}}
