Kāichrén (also rendered as Kaichren) are an East Hiakemirian ethnic grouping native to the Nán Yánshēn. The Kāichrén would descend from the same nomadic grouping which would form the Jien ethnic grouping linked to Jungg'o, with the ethnic groupings separating over time as the settlement of both areas occurred. Ethnic Kāichrén primarily live in Neo-Korea, but there is a notable diaspora population owing to large emigration which has occurred in the fairly recent past, most especially during the Korean Civil War. An approximate 14.56 million individuals are believed to be a part of the diaspora population, while 43,000,000 individuals of the Kāichrén ethnic grouping live in Neo-Korea currently according to modern censuses. Sizable diaspora communities are notable in Aureumterra, Meridon, and Anagonia.
Etymology
Origins
The Kāichrén and Jien ethnic groupings are believed to originate from a shared nomadic people, who would settle Jungg'o and the Nán Yánshēn across a large scale of time, with migration to the Yanshen occuring in times of want within Jungg'o. The origin of these nomadic peoples is not known, but is believed to have been either around the area of modern-day Atkemri, or around the area of Jungg'o and the Yanshen itself. Archaeological evidence has generally tended to reaffirm the theory of originating from the Jungg'o-Yanshen area, owing to pottery found there with no direct equivalent in Atkemri.
Migration across the region is believed to have displaced or assimilated an original cultural grouping on the peninsula, owing to differing pottery styles from the Northern / Pre-Jungg'o style found in the most ancient of remaining cultural sites. It is believed that this migration primarily followed rivers, eventually reaching the bottom of the Peninsula at some point in the late 3,600 BCE period. This period of expansion's end can be traced to the establishment of a "bronze dagger" culture, and the gradually increasing number of tomb-type structures being constructed.
Genetics
The Kāichrén and Jien ethnic groupings show a close genetic relationship, with similar results for ethnic groupings from Southern Atkemri and Janpians. They share surprisingly little similarity with the Matsumese ethnic grouping to the immediate south, leading to theorization that said grouping may have been the displaced cultural grouping previously present on the Peninsula.
Genealogy
Culture
See Main Article: Kāichrén Culture
Kāichrén cultural trends share many traits with Jien cultural trends, owing to closeness and long-term shared interaction between the two. A notable difference is the continuing presence of minor, religiously-inspired though-not-overtly-correlating-to-any-religion directly daily practices and lifestyle characteristics present in daily life. These are believed to have been traits of early Kāichrén Folk Religion practitioners whose suppression during the colonization period caused these traits to pass into the general population. Neo-Korea as a state has (after the ascension of Beom Dae to power) encouraged the production of media reviving and reviewing certain traditional concepts in a more positive light than the previous Hikaru Sakuma government.
Language
The primary language utilized amongst Kāichrén populations in the modern era is the Hiakemirian Constructed Language, with Kāichrén-Gengo as a tongue being near extinct in Neo-Korea itself, although it is still present in long-term diaspora communities, such as those which left during the KDS Revolution which overthrew The State of Kaesong. Kāichrén-Buntai as a commonly utilized writing style is functionally extinct on mainland Neo-Korea, with the vast majority choosing to use the more common Hiakemiria-Buntai. The loss of native linguistic traits can be traced back to a long-term policy of post-independence states of encouraging both writing and literacy programs to exclusively utilize the HCL, and the official support of HCL as the official language of government. Linguistic and verbal revivalist movements have been formed in the modern era, but have not been particularly successful in Neo-Korea.
