Chamals are a small demographic within Charnea, numbering 297,000 and making up no more than 1.1% of the Charnean population. However, they have played an outsized role in Charnean cultural affairs and have an unusually high degree of political representation in the national government.

The '''Kel Tenere''' ({{wp|Tamashek}}: ⴽⴻⵍ ⵜⴻⵏⴻⵔⴻ), also known as the '''Tenerians''' or '''Imuhaɣ''', are a {{wp|nomad|nomadic}} {{wp|Amazigh people|Amaziɣ}} group indigenous to central [[Ajax#Scipia|Scipia]] and have historically inhabited parts of [[Messidor Union|Aɣmatia]], southern [[Tyreseia]], parts of [[Alanahr]] and the [[Charnea|Charnean Empire]]. In the modern day they are less widespread and are found primarily in Charnea as the native people of the [[Ninva|Tenere desert region]]. The term ''Kel Tenere'' translates to "People of the Desert" and is used by the Tenerians to differentiate themselves from the non-Amaziɣ ''Kel Eraahar'' or "People of the River", which encompasses the majority of the ethnic groups in modern day Charnea. In a more general context, the Tenerians refer to themselves as ''Imuhaɣ'' or "free people" , a term which relates them to their Amaziɣ cousins and distinguishes them from other desert dwelling non-Amaziɣ such as the {{wp|Arab people|Gharbaic}} {{wp|Bedouins}}. Today most of those who self identify as Kel Tenere are have become {{wp|urbanization|urbanized}} and transitioned to a modern sedentary lifestyle, while a small minority retain the ancestral nomadic way of life. However, most Tenerians observe a version of the nomadic Tenerian culture including traditional music, festivities, customs, [[Religion in Charnea|religion]] and other prominent features of the culture such as the martial art of [[Tebillant]] and a [[Gun culture in Charnea|gun culture]] rooted in nomadic practices.
