The Orinese people (Oharic: Erwaniye) are an Oriental ethnic group native to eastern Europa, who share linguistic relations through speaking the Oharic language, but also their biological descendants and extended family. The Orinese are the titular nation of the Orioni Empire and before that the Orioni Queendom. All persons with the nationality of or legal citizenship in Orioni are considered "Orinese".
The ethnic group is centred around the Oriental subcontinent of Europa, encompassing 144 million people in Orioni. A further 7 million Orinese live in Bainbridge Islands, Tamurin, Niederoestereich and Pirilao. It is estimated that another 15 million people of Orinese ethnicity are located in the wider diaspora throughout Eurth. This number is rather fluid due to the criteria used to distinguish between partial or direct Orinese ancestry.
Clothing
Today the most recognised Orinese national costume is the sari. Women wear the sari during traditional ceremonies, weddings, and formal occasions. Orioni is a diverse nation with almost 20 provinces. Each area has their own unique style and distinguishing colours. The dress also has further differences depending on the climate. In the tropical wet climate people wear shorter, thinner clothes. Along the dry desert coast in Semeni people also wear thin clothing but much longer to prevent overheating. A veil can also be worn to protect against harsh desert sands. In the colder highlands the people wear long, thicker clothing to stay warm. The coastal areas are more influenced by international trends and often have a mix of different styles. Regional colours help identify which region a person is from: yellow for Semeni, red in Asehayi, blue for Weriki, and green in Irisha. Amilaki has no specific colour but uses a dotted pattern. People can combine two colours to show ancestry.
