 * UNDER CONSTRUCTION

New Guinea, officially the Republic of New Guinea (Breton: Republik an Ginea Nevez / Japanese: ニューギニア共和国), is a sovereign country located in Southeast Asia, east of Indonesia. It is among the only sovereign Breton-speaking states in the world.

New Guinea's official languages are English, Breton, and Japanese, although New Guinean Pidgin, Malay and Motu are recognized as national languages. Other languages include Macanese Patois, Kristang (both of them Portuguese creoles), Petjo (a Dutch creole in Indonesia), Chinese varieties, Tamil, Buginese, Ambonese, Portuguese, Dutch, Scots, and multiple other native languages.

Ethnic groups
New Guinea is a multicultural country. Over 600 native peoples have been recorded in New Guinea, although all of these tribes are recognized as Melanesians, Polynesians, Micronesians or Native Papuans. Furthermore, there is a fairly large Malay community consisting of not only Malays proper, but also communities of Timorese, Buginese, Makassarese, Ambonese, Banjarese, Minangkabau, Javanese, and to some extent Betawi and Sundanese.

New Guinea also has sizeable communities of Eurasians, descendants of the European settlers in New Guinea. 2/3 of all Eurasians are of Breton descent, the remaining 1/3 consists of Portuguese, Dutch and British (primarily Scottish-Irish) descendants. In addition, there is a significant population of Chinese people mostly from Guangzhou, Fujian and Taiwan.

"Disheñvel" is a Breton slang term for Peranakans, people of mixed Malay and foreign descent. Most disheñvel are descendants of Kristang people from Malacca and Macanese people of mixed Portuguese-Chinese descent. Other Peranakan groups in New Guinea include the Papuan Malays, Baba Nyonya (Chinese Peranakans), Chettiars, Indos and Jawi Pekans, whereas other non-Peranakan disheñvel groups include the Afrikaners, Dutch and Portuguese Burghers and Anglo-Burmese.

Trivia

 * New Guinea has a sizeable majority of "AbredTubers", a Breton-language Internet slang term used to refer to people observing and practicing aspects of late 2000's internet culture, including videos from early YouTube. Most AbredTubers use HyperCam 2 to record videos, as well as early versions of Movie Maker for editing, background music made by American DJ Alexander Perls.
