The Tierradorian Woqalate is an extremely diverse nation, with 21 ancestry groups having more than 1 million self-reported members. Qabóri-Tierradorians, who typically report ancestry from the Qabóri Nation of Indigenous Cronans, [[Coscivian]], [[Polynesia|Polynesian]], [[Sarpedon|Sarpedonian]], and [[Levantia|Levantine]], form the largest [[w:Race|racial]] and [[w:Ethnic group|ethnic group]] within the nation at 41.4%, or almost 77 million Tierradorians. Indigenous Cronans, referred to as the [[Abio Nations]], make up 27.2% (about 50.5 million) and are the second-largest group in Tierrador. Coscivians make up 18.1% (33.6 million) of the total population and are the third-largest group in Tierrador. Ænglish-origin Tierradorians (mostly from [[Alstin]], [[Arcerion]], and [[Urcea]]), make up 11.7 million Tierradorians and are 6.3% of the total population. Tierradorians with ancestry from all areas of the [[Audonia|Audonian continent]] are typically recognized within the same group, referred officially as Audonian-Tierradorian. This group makes up almost 9 million Tierradorians and make up 4.8% of the population. Half of the Audonian community reported origin from [[Daxia]], with the rest usually reporting ancestry to [[Metzetta]], [[Pursat]], [[Peshabiwar]], and [[Huoxia]]. The remaining 2.2%, or 4.1 million, were reported as "other." In 2030, it was reported that the [[w:Population pyramid|median age]] for Tierradorians population was 27.5 years.

===Language===
===Language===
Tierrador has two ''[[w:De facto|de facto]]'' official languages standardized by [[Tierradorian nationality law|its nationality law and naturalization process]]: [[Tierradorian]] and [[w:Southern American English|Terra Ænglish]], a Tierradorian regional dialect of [[Ænglish]]. Despite this, there are several languages spoken throughout different regions of the country. Most of these languages are Abio indigenous languages, and 16 of the 25 regions declare one or more Abio language as an official language. [[Kiravic Coscivian]] and [[Cartadanian]] are very prominent in the midwest and southeast region of the country, with Coscivian being spoken by 35 million residents and Cartadanian being spoken by 16 million Tierradorians. [[Aracadó]] is the only region in Tierrador to declare Cartadanian as an official language, along with [[Gaston (province)|Gaston Province]] in [[Las Rozas]] and [[Chauakee (province)|Chauakee]] and [[Isban (province)|Isban]] provinces in [[Auqali]] having Cartadanian as an official language. Most Tierradorian schools only offer classes in Tierradorian and Terra Ænglish, however in areas with an allowing budget, classes are also taught in various languages to those who need it. It is required, however, that all Tierradorians learn Tierradorian and Terra Ænglish, and usually both languages are taught from grades 1 to 4.
