The Assamese people are a socio-ethnic linguistic identity that has been described at various times as nationalistic or micro-nationalistic.

The use of the term precedes the name of the language or the people. It has also been used retrospectively to the people of Assam before the term "Assamese" came into use. They are an ethnically diverse group formed after centuries of assimilation of Austroasiatic, Tibeto-Burman, Indo-Aryan and Tai populations, and constitute a tribal-caste continuum—though not all Assamese people are Hindus and ethnic Assamese Muslims numbering around 42 lakh (4,200,000) constitute a significant part of this identity.

A significant period of property damage, ethnic policing and even instances of street violence occurred in the region.
