==Ethnic groups==
[[Mauritians of Indian origin|Indo-Mauritians]] are roughly forty-six percent of the population. The Indo-Mauritian population consists of [[Hindus|Hindu]], [[Muslims|Muslim]], and [[Christians|Christian]] descendants of Indian [[Laborer|laborers]].

[[Mauritian Creoles]] (descendants of [[Africans]]) are thirty-eight percent of the population. Today, a significant proportion of Creoles are of African descent, with varying amounts of French and Indian [[Ancestor|ancestry]]. The Creole community also includes the country's ‘Metisse,’ or [[Multiracial people|mixed-race]] communities, which consist of people with any admixture of the island's other groups.<ref>Common Denominators: Ethnicity nationalism and the politics of compromise in Mauritius</ref> Rodrigues and [[Chagossians]] are usually incorporated within the Creole ethnic group.

Along with the French European community, [[United Kingdom|British]] [[Expatriate|expatriates]] or people of British descent make up roughly three percent of the population of Mauritius.<ref>{{Cite web |title=BBC NEWS {{!}} Special Reports {{!}} Brits Abroad |url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/shared/spl/hi/in_depth/brits_abroad/html/africa.stm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200419101859/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/shared/spl/hi/in_depth/brits_abroad/html/africa.stm |archive-date=2020-04-19 |access-date=2020-04-19 |url-status=live |website=news.bbc.co.uk}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/indian-ocean/mp-forrel-uk.htm|title=Mauritius - UK Relations|website=www.globalsecurity.org}}</ref>

[[Sino-Mauritian]]s from the [[Hakka people|Hakka]] and other [[List of ethnic groups in China|Chinese sub-ethnic]]/linguistic groups make up around three percent of Mauritian society.<ref name="Eriksen 1998 82">{{harvnb|Eriksen|1998|p=82}}</ref>

While the government officially groups Mauritians into four ethnic groups – Hindus, Muslims, Chinese, and [[General Population (Mauritius)|General Population]] – the general population includes all who do not practice [[Hinduism]] or [[Islam]] and are not Chinese by ethnicity. The general population is the Christian community, which includes Creoles, mixed-race people, [[white people]], and those who have converted to Christianity. 

Small groups of foreign students from [[Europe]] or the [[Indian Ocean]] region are also present. Recent years have seen a steady flow of foreign workers into the [[textile industry]] (primarily Chinese women), the [[Construction|construction industry]] (primarily Indian workers), and [[harbor]]-related activities (primarily [[Taiwanese people|Taiwanese]] men).

==Language==
{{Further|Languages of Mauritius}}

The main languages spoken in Mauritius are [[Mauritian Creole]], [[English language|English]], [[French language|French]], and [[Bhojpuri language|Bhojpuri]].<ref name="chass.utoronto.ca" /> English is the official administrative language of the [[parliament]], though French is also permitted. However, the [[lingua franca]] is Mauritian Creole, and the newspapers and television programs are usually in French.<ref name="brandeis.edu">{{cite web|url=http://www.brandeis.edu/coexistence/linked%20documents/Nigel%20-%20Mauritius%20FINAL.pdf |title=Coexistence International at Brandeis University |website=Brandeis.edu |access-date=2010-07-04}}</ref> The Mauritian currency features the [[Latin script|Latin]], [[Tamil script|Tamil]] and [[Devanagari]] scripts.

Mauritian Creole, which is spoken by 90 percent of the population, is considered to be the [[native language]] of the country and is used most often in informal settings.<ref name="chass.utoronto.ca">{{cite web|url=http://www.chass.utoronto.ca/~cpercy/courses/6362-chiba.htm|title=English Usage in Mauritius|website=Chass.utoronto.ca|access-date=2017-08-29|archive-date=2010-06-17|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100617090232/http://www.chass.utoronto.ca/~cpercy/courses/6362-chiba.htm|url-status=dead}}</ref> It was developed in the 18th century by African [[Slavery|slaves]] who used a [[pidgin language]] to communicate with each other and with their French masters, who did not understand the various [[Languages of Africa|African languages]]. The pidgin evolved with later generations to become a casual and main language.<ref name="m2002.thecgf.com">{{cite web|url=http://m2002.thecgf.com/Nations/Africa/Mauritius/default.asp|title=Mauritius|website=M2002.thecgf.com|access-date=2017-08-29|archive-date=2011-05-11|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110511093919/http://m2002.thecgf.com/Nations/Africa/Mauritius/default.asp|url-status=dead}}</ref>
