The population of Arcerion as of 2019 was estimated at 89,863,541. The coastal regions of the country are the most densely populated, owing to their location and being part of the original Carnish colony, accounting for almost three-quarters of the Arcer population. Moorden Governorate itself accounts for a vast majority of the population, owing to it being the oldest and most densely populated area of Arcerion. Moorden and Norham are equal in terms of total population growth, both accounting for 60% of all immigration and new births. | The population of Arcerion as of 2019 was estimated at 89,863,541.

Arcerion is a predominantly rural country, with urban centres being mostly localized along major rivers and waterways, and coastal areas. Of the total Arcer population 24.48% amount live in the top ten major cities. With three-quarters of Arcers classified as rural or 'semi-rural,' the focus of the country inevitably shifts to an agrarian or traditional rural focus, as is seen in [[Arco Determinism]]. This also means that as of 2019, Arcerion's population density was approximately 58.41 inhabitants per square kilometers. | Arcerion is a predominantly rural country, with urban centres being mostly localized along major rivers and waterways, and coastal areas.

Arcerion's population are largely defined by three major trends, their predominantly AEngle and Gaelic immigrant origin, the ongoing process of cultivating and adapting to Arcerion's climate, and their relationship with non-Arcer peoples. This also plays into the religious, cultural, and economic distribution of Arcerion. Wealth is most equally divided in Northlea due to its primarily farm and agriculture-based economy, with the widest wealth gap in Arceiron being in Kinnaird, the major financial and banking centre of the nation. Arcerion's AEngles are predominantly found along the coast and Foxhey Governorate, with there being a relatively equal mix inland of Gaels and AEngles. | Arcerion's population are largely defined by three major trends, their predominantly AEngle and Gaelic immigrant origin, the ongoing process of cultivating and adapting to Arcerion's climate, and their relationship with non-Arcer peoples.
