I agree with Auditorii's proposal to redefine Midway as a South Asian-influenced culture. Whilst it is true that the groups have extant populations, these are minority groups that have been subsumed under a greater Indian influence. I still believe that it would be beneficial to RP for them to constitute an independent nation in Midway. I think it would incentivize cultural RP and make for an intriguing experience if Midway were to become a majority state influenced by Bengali, Nepali, or Dzongkha people. I would especially be interested as an individual if Dzongkha were to be added as a major ethnic group.
For language, Dzongkha language resources, dictionaries, and grammars are all available to those who search, and Google Translate has added the language. Given that the most common approach people in this community seem to take is through Google Translate, I think most people would be content in the language department. As someone studying the Tibetan script and bits of grammar myself, I think any resources beyond Google Translate are sufficient as well for those who want a deeper dive.
