The Qymish people, or simply Qymish, are the largest ethnic group native to Qym. Worldwide, approximately 200 million people are of Qymish descent, making them one of the largest ethnic groups. Qymish people represent 83.7% of the population in Qym, TBD% of the population in NEIGHBOR and TBD% of the population in NEIGHBOR.
Qymish people are considered to be the descendants of the Byrakans and the Sukats, but also other tribes that inhabited the Qymish territories during the late antiquity period, such as the Ottelians. The history of the Qymish as an ethnic group began with the separation of Northern Sukatia from the Sukats Kingdom, resulting in the formation of the Duchy of Qym in 1100.
