The three main ethnic groups living in Istroya are the majority native Istroyan Melotes (78-81% of the population), [[Coscivians]] (9-12% of the population), and "Levantines", with the third term encompassing all Occidental Christians, not just those with roots on the Levantine continent. Smaller numbers of [[Audonian Christianity|Audonian Christians]] and Alsharic people also live in the islands. Some three percent (3%) of the population are Istro-Coscivians with ties to both the Istroyan and Coscivian communities. Istro-Coscivians are officially recognised as a distinct ethnic group and ''tuva'' in the Kiravian Federacy proper, but this recognition has not been extended to the Melian Isles themselves, where members of the community may be registered either as Istroyans or "Melian Coscivians" by the authorities.

The Jethrovians are a small ethnoreligious group that practices a derivative of Pythagorean monotheism. The Jethrovians originated from the Melian Isles, but today only a small community of three thousand remain, mostly in the Ephesian suburb of Midianos. Instead, the majority of Jethrovians today live in the [[Sydona Islands]] and [[Kaviska]].
