Meota
98% ethnically Meó (the other 2% comprising of immigrants/their descendants), Meota's relationship to the Meó state is incredibly long and complex.
History
This is where the early Meó peoples (specifically the Sati and Varisti tribes) crossed through to reach the Yot River Valley/modern day Sati/Varisti. When they refused to become part of either Sati or Varisti states, they were kicked out of the empire due to their neutrality. They still remain part of the greater Meó Realm, but they are neutral in many international affairs and have grown to have a distinct identity.
