Today, 13 non-Chlouvānem ''lailyāvikai'' are titulars of an ''ethnic diocese'', a diocese considered "homeland" of that particular ethnic group and where members of that ethnic group have certain privileges. Except for Bazá people in Tūnambasā diocese, however, all of these ethnicities are rather small minorities in their own ethnic dioceses.

The Chlouvānem Inquisition recognizes 949 ethnicities (excluding Chlouvānem and "foreign" ethnicities<ref>Foreign ethnicities are those considered native of foreign countries, excluding the Bazá and the Čathinow due to them having ethnic dioceses inside the Inquisition; Ogotet' people are also considered not-foreign due to their historical presence in Chlouvānem lands.</ref>) as native inside its borders; despite this large number, they only amount to 10.5% of the Inquisition's total population (about 154.3 million people): their percentage is highest in the diocese of the Southern rainforest, which are however thinly populated (for example, 95% of the inhabitants of Kīkañjātia are divided into 22 non-Chlouvānem ethnicities, but in actual numbers it's about 72,000 people). These "ethnicities" are also sometimes just descendants of particular castes, not otherwise culturally separated from other Chlouvānem, and many of them just number in the tens of thousands of people or less.<br/>The actual largest non-Chlouvānem ethnicity is Bronic people (''bronai'' in Chl.; they also include people of Fathanic origin), 1.3% of the total population of the Inquisition (about 19.1 million people) - a figure also explained by one of the historically main Bronic lands being a Chlouvānem diocese (Hivamfaida) and by the large internal migration during the Kaiṣamā (Fathan has also been a diocese of the Inquisition for a large part of that period).
