| Message | From the wiki: The majority of the population inhabits the coastline of the South Sea. Densely populated cities and towns cover the coastal regions almost continuously, including the principal cities of Miamo and New Vigara, as well as the capital and largest city of the nation, Wakanda. This is primarily due to the predominantly dense jungle conditions northwards, which have historically prevented the foundation of large settlements. Nowadays, modern towns and cities dot these regions, but the two primary northern cities of note are the historical cities of Lalaka, bordering Lake Majatra, and Dareeto, founded upon a river in Bogendo. Jakania's population possesses significant diversity in terms of religious beliefs and ethnic makeup, with no single ethnic group of individuals possessing a significant majority of the population. Also notable is the prevalence of religious belief throughout the nation; in past censuses, only a very small number of respondants did not describe their religious beliefs, or described themselves as non-religious. The diversity and prevalence of religious beliefs most likely account for the nation's historical tendancy towards religious secularism. Jakania, since its formation, and excluding the short-lived nation of Islamabad, has never had an official state religion. Religiously, the nation is predominantly muslim, with 84.6% of people describing themselves as islamic; 56.9% of the total population as Shi'a, 22.1% as Sunni Muslim, and 5.6% as followers of Sufism. The Terran Catholic Church's followers account for 10.3% of the population, while orthodox christians account for 3%. 2.1% identify themselves as Jewish peoples. Ethnically, the largest group are the Jelbe-Wantuni people, making up 44.1% of the population. The Roma people make up 35.3% of people, and 16.8% of the population is Arabian, or Majatran. 2.2% of the population are Delic, 1.7% identify their ethnicity as Jewish, and small minorities of Dunic (0.6%) and Latin (0.3%) peoples also exist within Jakania. |
