As of the 2011 census, Imagua and the Assimas over 1.3 million inhabitants. The two main groups are the [[Bahio-Imaguan people|Bahio-Imaguans]], comprising 60% of the population, or 783,903 people, and the [[Eucleo-Imaguan people|Eucleo-Imaguans]], which comprise about 22% of the population, or 287,431 people. The remaining 18% of the population, or 235,171 people, are either immigrants or [[Native Imaguan people|native Imaguans]].
As of the 2021 census, Imagua and the Assimas over 1.3 million inhabitants. The three main groups are the [[Bahio-Imaguan people|Bahio-Imaguans]], comprising around 80% of the population, or 1,072,905 people, the [[Coian-Imaguans]], who comprise around 8% of the population, or 107,285 people, and the [[Eucleo-Imaguan people|Eucleo-Imaguans]], which comprise about 7% of the population, or 93,638 people. The remaining 5% of the population, or 70,851 people, are either [[Senrian people|Senrians]], recent immigrants, or [[Native Imaguan people|native Imaguans]].


The Bahio-Imaguans are descendants of {{wp|slaves}} brought in from [[Bahia]] by the various colonizers which have ruled over the archipelago. Over the generations, the Bahio-Imaguans developed their own identity separate from their original identities back in Bahia, as they were shaped by the life in Imagua and the Assimas.
The Bahio-Imaguans are descendants of {{wp|slaves}} brought in from [[Bahia]] by the various colonizers which have ruled over the archipelago in the [[Transvehemens slave trade|triangle trade]]. Over the generations, the Bahio-Imaguans developed their own identity separate from their original identities back in Bahia, as they were shaped by the life in Imagua and the Assimas.


The Euclo-Imaguan population, on the other hand, is an umbrella term used to refer to the population of [[Euclea|Euclean]] descent. The two largest Euclo-Imaguan groups are [[Etrurian-Imaguans]], who are descended from [[Etrurian people|Etrurian]] migrants, and comprise 15% of the national population (195,976 people), and [[Estmerish-Imaguans]], who are descended from [[Estmerish people|Estmerish]] migrants, who comprise 2% of the national population (26,130 people). The remaining 5% of the Euclean population (65,325 people) come from a wide variety of ethnic groups, with the most prominent of these being the {{wp|Swedish people|Ordennyan}} population.
The Coian-Imaguans are descendants of [[Gowsa|gowsas]], and to a lesser-extent, [[Satria|Satrian]] {{wp|indentured servants}} who were brought in following the abolition of slavery in the Estmerish Empire in 1795. The Coian population would develop a unique identity separate from their [[Dezevau|Dezevauni]] and [[Kabu|Kabuese]] ancestors.


As of the 2011 census, 9.5% of the population belong to other ethnic groups, mostly deriving from immigrants from both [[Coius]] and the [[Asterias]], with the largest immigrant population, the [[Dezevaunis]], comprising 8% of the population, or 104,520 people, followed by the [[Senrian people|Senrians]] comprising just 4% of the population, or 52,260 people. Only 0.5% of the population, or 6,532 people, being [[Native Imaguan people|native Imaguans]].
The Euclo-Imaguans are descendants of [[Euclea|Euclean]] settlers. The two largest Euclo-Imaguan groups are [[Etrurian-Imaguans]], who are descended from [[Etrurian people|Etrurian]] migrants, and comprise around five percent of the national population (59,828 people), and [[Estmerish-Imaguans]], who are descended from [[Estmerish people|Estmerish]] migrants, who comprise around two percent of the national population (26,554 people). The remainder of the Euclean population (4,587 people) come from a wide variety of ethnic groups, with the most prominent of these being the [[Emessa|Emessan]] and {{wp|Swedish people|Blostlander}}-descended individuals.


Ethnicity in Imagua and the Assimas is considered to be passed down patrilineally, meaning that a light-skinned person can be considered black if the father is also considered black. This has posed a problem with the native Arucian population, whose identity is passed down matrilineally, which may explain the low native population.
As of the 2021 census, 5% of the population belong to other ethnic groups, mostly deriving from immigrants from both [[Coius]] and the [[Asterias]], with the largest immigrant population, the [[Senrian people|Senrian-Imaguans]] comprising just 4% of the population, or 52,260 people. Only 0.5% of the population, or 6,532 people, are [[Native Imaguan people|native Imaguans]].
 
Ethnicity in Imagua is usually considered to be passed down matrilineally, meaning that a light-skinned person can be considered black if their mother is also considered black. On the [[Assimas Islands]], descendants of mixed-race unions are traditionally classified as ''misto'', although since the annexation of the Assimas in the aftermath of the Solarian War, all ''misto'' are classified as Bahio-Imaguans.

Ethnicity

As of the 2021 census, Imagua and the Assimas over 1.3 million inhabitants. The three main groups are the Bahio-Imaguans, comprising around 80% of the population, or 1,072,905 people, the Coian-Imaguans, who comprise around 8% of the population, or 107,285 people, and the Eucleo-Imaguans, which comprise about 7% of the population, or 93,638 people. The remaining 5% of the population, or 70,851 people, are either Senrians, recent immigrants, or native Imaguans.

The Bahio-Imaguans are descendants of slaves brought in from Bahia by the various colonizers which have ruled over the archipelago in the triangle trade. Over the generations, the Bahio-Imaguans developed their own identity separate from their original identities back in Bahia, as they were shaped by the life in Imagua and the Assimas.

The Coian-Imaguans are descendants of gowsas, and to a lesser-extent, Satrian indentured servants who were brought in following the abolition of slavery in the Estmerish Empire in 1795. The Coian population would develop a unique identity separate from their Dezevauni and Kabuese ancestors.

The Euclo-Imaguans are descendants of Euclean settlers. The two largest Euclo-Imaguan groups are Etrurian-Imaguans, who are descended from Etrurian migrants, and comprise around five percent of the national population (59,828 people), and Estmerish-Imaguans, who are descended from Estmerish migrants, who comprise around two percent of the national population (26,554 people). The remainder of the Euclean population (4,587 people) come from a wide variety of ethnic groups, with the most prominent of these being the Emessan and Blostlander-descended individuals.

As of the 2021 census, 5% of the population belong to other ethnic groups, mostly deriving from immigrants from both Coius and the Asterias, with the largest immigrant population, the Senrian-Imaguans comprising just 4% of the population, or 52,260 people. Only 0.5% of the population, or 6,532 people, are native Imaguans.

Ethnicity in Imagua is usually considered to be passed down matrilineally, meaning that a light-skinned person can be considered black if their mother is also considered black. On the Assimas Islands, descendants of mixed-race unions are traditionally classified as misto, although since the annexation of the Assimas in the aftermath of the Solarian War, all misto are classified as Bahio-Imaguans.
