The [[West Coast Marine Coscivian]] dialects, when counted as a single language, constitute the largest language in Metrea by number of native speakers. The four dialects native to Metrea - Esselenic, Isuosaronic, Kapaśian, and Kontrakosan - are the main languages of daily life and interethnic communication in the coastal and coastal montane parts of the state, and a literary standard based primarily on the Esselenic dialect spoken in and around Mérosar serves as one of the government's working languages. This official register is somewhat different from the standard written forms used in Ilfenóra, Kaskada, Venèra, and Lataskia, but is the same as the standard written form used in Argévia. Localist activists from areas speaking the other dialects (especially Kontrakosan, which has more native speakers than Esselenic but is spoken far away from the capital) have long agitated for greater recognition of written forms based on their own speech patterns. | The [[West Coast Marine Coscivian]] dialects, when counted as a single language, constitute the largest language in Metrea by number of native speakers.

[[Catholic Church|Catholicism]], primarily practiced according to the Coscivian Rite, is the majority religion in Metrea, with around 70% of the population adhering to the Catholic Church. Rural and micropolitan communities in the state's inland areas form part of the Farravonian Rosary Belt, a continuous chain of similar communities stretching from northern Argévia to Inokarya where Catholic devotions are an especially important fixture of daily life. Coscivian Orthodoxy, Ruricanism, Marcevangelista Catholicism, and Iduanism are the next largest religions by number of followers. | [[Catholic Church|Catholicism]], primarily practiced according to the Coscivian Rite, is the majority religion in Metrea, with around 70% of the population adhering to the Catholic Church.

As in most Kiravian provinces, Metrean judiciary has a three-tiered structure. A trial court serves each of the state's countyships, and rulings handed down by these courts may be appealed to one of the four regional Courts of Revision. The Mérosar High Court (which has an auxilliary bench in Eparxa) is the state constitutional court and highest court of appeal. A Court of Public Adjudication sitting in Kelanova was established in 21198 to hear constitutional cases, certain cases involving public bodies, and cases with countyships and municipalities belonging to different countyships as parties. | As in most Kiravian provinces, Metrean judiciary has a three-tiered structure.
