The Gurriana are an ethnic group native to the Chezian highlands of Western Nortua. Gurriana constitute the main population of the province of Tirikan in Syraranto and the de facto independent Republic of Uuanain. There is a wide-ranging diaspora of around five million people of full or partial Gurriana ancestry living outside modern Tirikan, with most having fled in the 2020s as a result of the Tirikan Genocide. The largest Gurriana populations today exist in member nations of the Sotoan Basin Union; namely Constantio, Cylata, and Beatavic; with other notable diasporas in Zamastan, Besmenia, and Cadair.
The majority of Gurriana in Syraranto practice Gurrie as their religion, a modern Pagan new religious movement that harkens back to the historical, pre-Christian belief systems in Nortua. The remainder of the diaspora largely practice Christianity.
