Most of Vithinja is relatively reclusive with their musical tastes, not really entertaining the creation of music in foriegn languages, with the exception of Caeric and some Coscovian songs, which are considered very respectable languages in large parts of the nation. This is in part because both of the main global languages, Anglish and Latin are considered to be very unharmonic (especially Anglish, which is the preferred international language in Vithinja) which generally makes most foreign music sound "wrong". | Most of Vithinja is relatively reclusive with their musical tastes, not really entertaining the creation of music in foriegn languages, with the exception of Caeric and some Coscovian songs, which are considered very respectable languages in large parts of the nation.

While many other nations take the most interest in football the household sport in Vithinja has been hockey ever since the commercialization of the radio. This applies to in part to field hockey, which is more common to be played by youths and in private as well as being generally more popular in souther regions. Ice hockey is however much more popular professionally and gets far more media attention. Vithinjan hockey referees are often less strict with more violent acts than what is common in international settings, leading to Vithinja having by far the most penalty time assigned to them in world-cup games, to the point that they almost double the runner up nation. This has however not prevented Vithinja from becoming one of the most successful nations in international hockey, with their penalty times perhaps being the only thing preventing them from total dominance within the sport. | While many other nations take the most interest in football the household sport in Vithinja has been hockey ever since the commercialization of the radio.

Vithinjan Tourist centers are often especially targeted at veterans. This is in large part because of support from the church of Rolv, who spends some of their income on efforts to attract and convert veterans. | Vithinjan Tourist centers are often especially targeted at veterans.
