The rise of traditionalism (and Nāɂahilūmism) in the last ten years restored many of the Kaiṣamā-era restrictions to immigration; anyway, the start of the second wave of the Dabuke Civil Wars in northeastern Védren has led to a large influx of immigrants entering the Inquisition from there. Middle-class immigration from the West also has not stopped, but most of those immigrants are now Communist-aligned students or "new age" followers of Yunyalīlti-influenced cults; depending on where they work, such immigrants may have less restrictions in travelling abroad, with restricted movement being mainly from Western part (like in the ongoing controversial case of the Cerian-born woman ​Tanūrēṣāvi Laitamērališā ''Lyāni'' (born Reáni Laitaméra), who married a Chlouvānem man considered a terrorist by international security forces and can't travel outside the Inquisition and a few other Eastern Bloc countries).<br/>

Today, immigrants to the Inquisition mostly come from Dabuke lands in northeastern Védren and western Márusúturon (the latter areas bordering with Chlouvānemized Dabuke lands part of the Inquisition); due to the widespread instability, poverty, and often war in these areas of the world (a result of decades of civil war caused by power struggles in the reigning oligarchies), many displaced people flee these lands and because of geographical proximity the closest “safe” areas are the Western dioceses of the Inquisition. Due to most Dabuke people being animists and to Western Chlouvānem culture being born as a hybrid between “mainstream” (or Plains) Chlouvānem and the former Eastern Dabuke cultures, they’re often easily converted and integrated into it: cultural differences between Western Chlouvānem and other Dabuke peoples are far smaller than between Western and, for example, Northeastern Chlouvānem people.

===Skin colour statistics===
As predictable given the métis origins of the Chlouvānem people and their cultural-based ethnicity, skin colour is fairly unimportant in Chlouvānem society; ID cards record it as a physical trait, but it has almost no implication outside bare statistics. Different skin colours are however interesting in their distribution, and often it is a sign of a certain geographical origin.

* the '''vindṛṇīṭah''' group (<small>11 and lower</small>) is the colour of “whites”: despite being fairly common on Calémere it is hardly native to the lands of the Inquisition, apart from the taiga in the far Northeast and the islands off the Northeastern coast, as well as descendants of Evandorians in the northwestern dioceses (former colonies of Western powers) and later middle-class Evandorian immigrants. As those were historically sparsely populated areas, ancestral people of those areas are few; and as that kind of immigration is not so relevant in percentage terms, it is the rarest group, amounting to only 1% of all Chlouvānem.
