I would personally favour something closer to the first ethnic breakdown because I think there is scope for a country with a Kazakh and Kyrgyz culture in the future. I think a Kyrgyz minority is fine though. I am not sure about the in-game equivalent "Kiraguz" though. I think it might be a bit too similar to the real-life term.I don't have any problem with this composition, though if Uzbeks are the bigger group, uUzbek would probably be the offical languager, or be co-official with Uyghur. I like the idea with Ashker, maybe we could use it for Uzbeks and Uyghurs since they are Karluk Turkics, unlike Kyrgiz? As for name, i see your point, and will try to make something more distinct. As for regligion I like Audis idea.
I know this is a crude way of looking at things but I think Uzbeks should be the larger group because they are a much larger group in the real world. As all three Turkic peoples are predominantly Muslim in real life, I would suggest that the country should be predominantly Ahmadi too. I would specify religious denominations.
On a minor point, "Ashker" has previously been used as an in-game equivalent for "non-Turkish Turkic". If you think it is worthwhile, you might want to include this and have Uyghur, Uzbek and Kyrgyz as sub-groups. With these suggestions in mind, here is my suggested alternative demographics:
Uzbek = 37%
Uyghur = 35%
Ainu = 12%
Kyrgyz = 9%
Austrian = 5%
Other = 2%
Sunni Islam = 78%
Catholic Church = 8%
No religion = 7%
Ainu folk religion = 6%
Other = 1%
