Kachin people

 Same to Chin, the Kachin is part of the Tibeto-Burman racial group, and majorly inhabit in Kachin state. They are divided into 6 ethnic sub-groups: Jingpaw, Lawngwaw, Lashi, Zaiwa, Rawang and Lisu; in which Jingpaw are the most numerous.
Traditionally the Kachin are animists, but afterwards they were highly targeted by Christian missionaries during colonial times. Today, about 36% of the population are Christian, majorly Baptist and Catholic.
