Ainu

Explanation:

The Ainu or the Aynu, often referred to as the Ezo in the historical Japanese texts, are an indigenous people of Japan (Hokkaidō and formerly North-Eastern Honshū) and Russia (Sakhalin, the Kuril Islands, Khabarovsk Krai and the Kamchatka Peninsula).

The Ainu people are descendants of the Jōmon people, who lived in northern Japan from the Jōmon period (c. 14,000 to 300 BCE).

Official total estimates place Ainu population of Japan at 25,000. While the Unofficial estimates place the total population at 200,000 or higher, this due to the near-total assimilation of the Ainu into Japanese society which has led to many individuals with Ainu heritage having no knowledge of their origin.
