Torlen is a blend of [[Bergendii]], Istroyan]], and Northern [[Deric]] cultures which reflects those who settled the islands over the last 3,000 years. It is predominantly Catholic with a small [[Mercantile Reform Protestant]] population as a result of the [[Expulsion of the Protestants]]. Culturally the people of the island are within the [[Culture in Burgundie]] with some influences from the people who fled [[Audonia]] in the early 19th century. There is a small remnant of the [[Istroyan]] religious sect on the island but not in the true Orthodox faith but through the [[Audonian Christianity|Patriarchate of Marand]]. | |||
The primary symbol of the island and its culture is the "swordfish circle". | |||
