Karen (people), tribal people of Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) who live principally in Kayah State in Myanmar. In physical characteristics they resemble the Burmese. The Karens are monogamous and traditionally practiced a form of nature worship, although many now practice Christianity or Buddhism. The Karen language, a member of the Tai branch of the Sino-Tibetan languages, is one of the pre-Chinese languages spoken in Lower Myanmar and on the borders of Thailand.
