Xenophobia in Ciarnesia

Xenophobia in Ciarnesia has been a social issue since the country's cultural formation in the early 1400s. Historically, the largest targets of xenophobia remained Ukrainians and Hijarans through the 20th century. Antisemitism and Antiziganism have also played a large role in the history of Ciarnesian xenophobia.

Xenophobia in Ciarnesia was first established in the early 1400s when many Romanians and Moldovans fled to the Kingdom of Poland due to imperialist efforts made by Hiigara in Romania. Upon arriving in Poland in 1431, they formed the town of Ciar. A Citizens' army was created shortly after for the sole purpose of defending against a potential Hijaran invasion as well as assassinating migrants from Hiigara.

Disputes with Ukrainian locals led to Anti-Ukrainism during the 1600s. Heavy growth of the Ciarnesian population forced Ukrainians out of their native villages.
