Kalabuta is the largest Mwangi tribal group in Vidrian and are culturally identified with the Zenj. Chelaxian colonists named Kalabuto, the Sargavan name of Umnyango, after this tribe.

The Kalabuta embraced the colonial ways, wore colonial fashions, ate colonial food, and even spoke Common tongues with a Chelaxian accent. They formed the backbone of the colonial labor pool, and many Kalabuta worked at the vast pineapple fields and Sargavan ranches. They also served as rank-and-file troops in the colonial militia. The other Mwangi tribes were aware that the colonials with the Kalabuta on their side could field a large and well-organized army.

The fate of the Kalabuta since the Vidric Revolution of 4715 AR is unknown.
