| The origins of the Kareden is not completely clear. Contemporaries implied that they came to the region from the south and were originally from Teametian. But there is no documented evidence of this claim, and modern researchers suspect that that might have been loaded language to rationalize campaigns against them at the end of the 19th CSR. Based on their culture, language and religion, they were clearly descendants of peoples from central Tarnaria. After the downfall of the kingdom, Kareden formally became part of Loodon, but most of them have migrated to the Overpol Region and northern Tarnaria. Their trace in history ends after that. | The origins of the Kareden is not completely clear. Contemporaries implied that they came to the region from the south and were originally from Teametian.
