South Kirav is one of the most distinctive cultural and geographic regions of Great Kirav, with a very strong regional identity and well-defined culture. Due to its more level terrain and warmer climate, South Kirav has long been the country's breadbasket. South Kiravian society is agrarian and traditional, and has been described as "pre-modern" or even "quasi-feudal" in many respects. | South Kirav is one of the most distinctive cultural and geographic regions of Great Kirav, with a very strong regional identity and well-defined culture.

Due to a number of factors, most prominently flatter topography and the deterring and levelling effects of its systems of land tenure and labour relations, there has historically been relatively little migration into South Kirav. Ethno-linguistically the South is much more homogeneous than other regions of Great Kirav, and its resident ethno-linguistic groups tend to have quite ancient roots in the areas they currently inhabit and strong connexions to their land. | Due to a number of factors, most prominently flatter topography and the deterring and levelling effects of its systems of land tenure and labour relations, there has historically been relatively little migration into South Kirav.

Nonetheless, there are lower-order ''tuva'' and subgroups within the areal South Kiravian peoples, often associated with particular regions, occupational roles in the traditional agrarian economy, distant ethnic origins, or religious/sectarian affiliations. | ||
