The remaining roughly 5% are mostly [[Urcean people]], though several thousand [[Caphiria|Caphirian]] nationals have moved to the island for business purposes since the [[Assumption Accords]].

The vast majority of Herci consider themselves to be [[Veltorine people]]. 89.2% of residents of the island reported to be fully or partly Veltorine, with 5.4% considering themselves to belong to the broader Istroyan ethnic group. The remaining roughly 5% are mostly [[Urcean people]], though several thousand [[Caphiria|Caphirian]] nationals have moved to the island for business purposes since the [[Assumption Accords]]. Accordingly, most people on Herciana speak the Veltorine dialect of Istroyan with minorities speaking [[Caphiric Latin]] and [[Julian Ænglish]]. Since the end of the [[Second Great War]], an increasing number of self-identified ethnic Veltorines have been adopting [[Julian Ænglish]] as a first language, and most residents of the island are fluent in the language.
