The title. Aprox. how much/what section of the population is of British descent or is it just limited to the Brooke dynasty? Is there a sizeable japanese population on the Raj?
Phenomenal question.
Like IRL in 1945, the Raj of Sarawak has a microscopic White population, mostly composed of British expats and more importantly the Brooke dynasty.
The demographics of Sarawak are complex and multiracial, with a large youthful population and new arrivals of all kinds, looking something like this:
26.8% Iban
26% Chinese
~13% Malay
9% Bidayuh
7% Other Bumiputera
6,2% Melanau
3% Japanese
9% Others (Indians, Kedayan, Javanese, Europeans).
