{{defn |1=The Acuera are a stateless, seminomadic people living on the northern fringe of [[Cusinaut]] and the Boreal Zone. They number at about thirty thousand people. They first travelled to the area from the south in the 3rd Century BC. During the existence of the [[Northern Confereration]] and its successor, [[Algoquon]]a, a large portion of the Acuera people worked for both states as pathfinders and skirmishers, and this is reflected in their marginalization as a people outside of those few living in the [[Algosh Republic]].}} | {{defn |1=The Acuera are a stateless, seminomadic people living on the northern fringe of [[Cusinaut]] and the Boreal Zone.

{{defn |1=The Ashkenauk are a people native to north-central [[Cusinaut]] and are the primary population of [[Ashkenang]]. They number at roughly eighteen million persons, which is split between the Toposa Ashkenauk, Yanota Ashkenauk, Atakapa Ashkenauk, and Mishauk tribes. The Toposa live near the border of [[Maloka]] and [[Sabnaki]], the Yanota and Atakapa in the heartland, and the Mishauk on the fringes in the north and west. They are unified by a common dialect and ancestry, and were one of the predominant peoples in the Northern Confederation. Ashkenauk polities are reliant on mass politics and less centrally heirarchical than most of their neighbors, and their form of [[M'acunism]] emphasizes the sacrifice of part of their food to household Kānenaka and local spirits. Unlike other traditions, the Ashkenauk burn their offerings in ceremonial square pits | {{defn |1=The Ashkenauk are a people native to north-central [[Cusinaut]] and are the primary population of [[Ashkenang]].

Unlike other traditions, the Ashkenauk burn their offerings in ceremonial square pits lined with brick and pour the ashes into rivers instead of blootletting. Large sacrifices are seen as ostentatious bragging, while consistent small offerings are taken as humble and honest.}} | ||
