Ethnicity and Locality

There are 19 recognized ethnic groups of naisylphs. However, two dominate the population. Approximately 55% of all Naisylphs are Oldhrian, a group centralized in the Ashlands and Golden Strand, and 36% are Veradan, a group originating in Veryiin. The next largest group is the Eressan, with 6% of the population, located chiefly in Bellin Province on the southern Imperial border of Kaliba. The remaining 3% is distributed between 16 other minor, highly localized groups.

Naisylvan culture largely fractures into regions governed by different sylvan lords. Much debate rages over the original source of these borders, but they are undeniably encoded in sylvan culture. The modern sylvan provinces are based on the largest such regions. Each region has a Path traditionally associated with it, often based on the natural resources located there.
