The Selucians (Selucian: Seluciani) are the dominant ethnic group in Selucia, and a significant minority in several neighbouring nations. Apart from ethnic Selucians, the group also includes a number of people of mixed ethnic heritage, legacy of Selucian colonialism; of these the most important are Seluco-Pontesians, Seluco-Cildanians, or Seluco-Barmenians. Selucians speak the Selucian language, the collective name for Modern Standard Selucian (the modernized form of Classical Selucian) and a number of dialects used exclusively in informal speech. In areas outside Selucian control Selucian groups evolved into modern Selucic peoples, primarily distinguished from Selucians in that their dialects were formalized as literary languages, unlike the Selucian dialects spoken by modern Selucians.
