Origins and statistics

Some Zaipinichi Peranakans are a mixture of descent, ethnicity and culture of many immigrants who have come to the Phinbellan Maritime Territories since the early 20th century. Before RP 2600, many Taesongeans, Irish, Tellians, Batavians, Armenians, Sangunese, Niuēians and Sephardi Jews began settling there and brought Yapreayans, Gogobugians, Cubulus and Nan'yoklanders slaves to settle in the Springwind Islands, Rimba Raya and Cyborges, there are waves of newcomers Niuēians, Batavians and Sangunese, including early Manx and Sinhalese immigrants coming from Niuē i Taman Lawang who emerged since early -12BP. Rintis Island, Springwind Islands, Bandar Baru Fatin, Paradi Island, Cyborges and Phinéas Padolski who are significant settlements for the Zaipinichi Peranakans became the site of a separate provisional government with a constitution adopted before being unified in September RP 2600, and since then, new waves of Taesongeans, Irish, Manx and Batavians immigrants have occurred, and there have also been waves of immigrants from among Yapreayans slaves who mostly built settlements new in Cyborges. In RP 2614, there were over 692,691 Zaipinichi Peranakans residents in Phinbella.

Zaipinichi organizations

Zaipinichi Peranakans has two largest organizations based in the Phinbellan Maritime Territories and the entire Gangwol region, namely Jaephinbella Mindan and Sourev.

Division between Mindan and Sourev

Jaephinbella Mindan is the most dominant Zaipinichi organization in Phinbella, it is more pro-government and it is less politically related. As many as 54 percent of the Zaipinichi are affiliated with Mindan. Jaephinbella Mindan is an organization targeting the generation of Zaipinichi Peranakans born in Phinbella. Another dominant organization is Sourev, an organization for newcomers in Phinbella and also repatriated residents which place of origin is colonized by external powers, it’s more political with various ideologies from outside Phinbella. These Sourevs are more militant than the Mindans, yet the Mindans are more into the struggle to maintain their identity as Zaipinichi Peranakans.

The Zaipinichi people including the Mindan group are more into sending their children to mainstream Phinbella schools or their community schools managed by the Phinbella government, yet the Sourev group prefers to send their children to schools managed by the Sourev organization.

The two Zaipinichi Peranakans organizations have their own policies due to different ideologies and economic conditions. Among Sourev's policies include:

• Operating over 60 Euran ethnic schools across the Phinbellan Maritime Territories and the Territory of Flower, it is these schools that use their ideology as their basis. They maintain their strong pro-imperial ideology, which sometimes comes under criticism from students and parents.
• Does not encourage its members from taking Phinbella citizenship.
• Does not encourage its members from marrying Phinbellans (whether Phineaner, Taesongean or Indian).
• Sourev operates businesses and banks to provide the jobs, services and social networks needed for Apollonian and Euran immigrants outside the mainstream society.
• Opposed to the right of the Zaipinichi Peranakan people to vote or participate in general elections or elections of the Phinbella Maritime Territories, which they would see as an unacceptable attempt at assimilation into Phinbellan society.
