β | The people of the region are known collectively as Zhosuran, though the inhabitants of each island consider it bad manners (and, in some cases, insulting) to refer to them as such. They are more properly called by their individual cultural names: Zhotian, Surese, Solalusan, Ilyean, Semmar, Saxitican, Yshyi'i, Chelese, etc. They are--by and large-- small and slender.
