Does your nation have black people in it?

Postby Arsenioh » Sun Mar 22, 2020 11:24 am

My nations indigenous/majority population is Black, but I noticed most of the auto generated Nationstates banners only have white people in them lol. I've come across many anti-Black nations, but I was wondering does anyone have a majority Black population?

Yes, but they're a small minority descended from immigrants - probably less than 1% nationwide, although some of the larger cities like Exegrad and Das Engel might see numbers closer to 5%.

Immigrants compose around 0.07% of the population, and number at around 10 million. Of these immigrants, 3 million are not of African origins. The second-largest group are Afroasiatics who comprise 1.2% of the population, and include Fulanis, Tuaregs and Berbers. The vast majority of the black population is composed by Bantus (3.7%; 51.8 million) and Ivorians (94.8%; 1.327 billion).

Very few blacks live in the Empire, then again: very few whites do as well.

We don't have a lot of humans on our world in general.

Of New Valhalla's 4.6 million people, less than 2,500 are African in origin. The reason for this is that after we banned slavery, a large part of the country's slave population (at that point Danish Colony of New Valhalla) were shipped to a designated area in West Africa that is now the Republic of the Free Coast with compensation enough for them to build a country with. A movement that was followed by most other Danish colonies. New Valhalla does not get many immigrants from Africa, because most of them do not fit the criteria to be welcomed in

Because Albennia is a country where less than 1% of the population is foreign-born and no.

4% of our population r blacks nationally. In urban areas, it's 5%. The majority ethnicity is white nationally but in most major cities and in certain states, it's Latinos.

The crew of the Monitor is majority white, but it does have a few black people in it.

There are some NS banners with people of color in them, but since the pool of banners isn't tailored to your specific nation, we can't guarantee that the mix of races will match your headcanon. You can always upload images of black people in a custom banner if you want to adjust the racial mix of your banners.

Yes, 6% of the population is black, and that does not include mixed who are part black. Cities with the highest concentration of black people are Harleigh, Courtland, and Gibbings.

I understand that the pool of banners isn't tailored to my specific nation, but I was simply noting that the pool of banners was more than white than other races (from what I have seen).

We do not have a black majority, but there are black people here.

Much of what is now Cat-Herders United was claimed by the Spanish as part of the colonial empire (although in practice they did not succeed at controlling the majority of that land), so there were some black slaves brought in, even though the Spanish tried to rely more on encomiendas.

More significantly, parts of what is now Cat-Herders United were taken over by filibusters from the South, bringing their slaves with them.

Though they were able to take over the cities of Puerto Hiebra Gatera and Felis City, they were never able to extend their control into much of the rural areas, or get to any other towns. Consequently, the slaves kept escaping to the nearby cat-herding tribes, which was a source of tension between the filibusters and the tribes. Finally, the armed entity became too aggressive and expansionist, so the cat-herding peoples entered into a temporary union to drive out the filibusters. Victory prevented the filibusters from supporting the CSA during the American Civil War.

Although some of the freed people would return to America to find their families, others remained in Cat-Herders United.
