Bahio-Imaguans (Etrurian: Bahiano-imaguani, Imaguan Creole: Bahis-imakusa) are people in Imagua and the Assimas who are of Bahian descent.
As of the 2011 census, the Bahio-Imaguan population comprise 60% of the country's population, with the Bahio-Imaguans generally living in large urban centres such as Cuanstad, San Pietro, Altaithe, Nua Taois, Lundholm, and Knowleston.
Etymology
The term Bahio-Imaguan was first used by anthropologist Lou Walsham in 1886 in a paper describing the "lifestyle of those Bahians who have migrated to Imagua from their homes in Bahia." At the time, it was initially used to only refer to those who were from Bahia, with their descendants being considered simply blacks (Etrurian: nere or neri, Imaguan Creole: swatna).
However, in the early twentieth century, the Labour Party (precursor to the Democratic Labour Party) used the term to refer to all persons of Bahian descent, with co-founder and party leader Clayton Keating saying in 1908 that:
"The term Bahio-Imaguan gives dignity to a people who for generations have been considered inferior to the white population, for it connects them to the achievements of their Bahian homeland, while acknowledging that we have developed our own identity separate from our cousins in Bahia."
Over the next few decades, this term gained widespread use among the left-wing, while the right-wing continued to maintain the usage of "black" or "black Imaguan," with Democratic Prime Minister Peter Hansson saying in 1918 that the term "black Imaguan" was "accurate, as only a handful of them are from Bahia."
However, by the 1940s, Bahio-Imaguan became accepted as a formal term for referring to those of Bahian descent in Imagua, but black continued to be used in informal circumstances until the late 1960s and early 1970s, when the term became seen as offensive.
