As noted above, Derians only form around 35% of the city-state's population, with the other 65% a potpourri of nationalities on account of the many diplomatic missions located in Alba Concordia. One further demographic quirk resulting from this international presence is that Alba Concordia has the highest number of chefs per capita of any country in the world, due to different missions' craving for the varied flavours of their homelands and their relatively high levels of disposable income. Approximately 2.5% of the city's population listed their occupation as "chef", "cook" or equivalent terminology in the 2021 Alba Concordia census, against a wider Levantine average of 0.2-0.5%. | As noted above, Derians only form around 35% of the city-state's population, with the other 65% a potpourri of nationalities on account of the many diplomatic missions located in Alba Concordia.

The most widely-spoken languages in Alba Concordia are [[Julian Ænglish|Junglish]] and Derian, with Junglish spoken almost exclusively as a second-language ''lingua franca'' and Derian as the most common mother tongue. Many diplomatic missions run either voluntary or compulsory Derian courses for long-term resident staff, but the preponderance of Junglish in Concordian daily life remains a source of resentment to many locals. | The most widely-spoken languages in Alba Concordia are [[Julian Ænglish|Junglish]] and Derian, with Junglish spoken almost exclusively as a second-language ''lingua franca'' and Derian as the most common mother tongue.

Petitions to make Derian the sole official language of Alba Concordia were a common feature of Concordian domestic politics throughout the 1990s in particular, but were consistently vetoed by the Commission on somewhat eyebrow-raising grounds of "internationalism". | ||
