Olmeria is a diverse nation defined by years of colonisation, immigration and hardship. Recent immigration mixed with slightly less recent population boom make for an interesting mix in demographics across Olmeria's different generations | |||

The only official language of Olmeria is [[Cordish]], which is spoken by over 96% of the population (89% fluently) and the accepted language for all official proceedings, education, road signs, and more. [[Ruthi Language|Ruthi]], the official language of [[Vithinja]], is recognised as a national language, meaning it's usage is protected by the government, and is known by a significant proportion of the population (around 28%), due to colonial history and modern day trade partnerships. Regionally recognised languages are [[Sköldish]], a harsh northern tongue spoken in rural mountain communities and those on the icy northern plains, and [[Fhasen]], a widely spoken northern [[Levantia|Levantian]] language, common in the southern regions due to years of trading with northern Levantia. | |||

[[Lindbergh Protestantism]], a close relation to the Vithinjan [[Church of Rolv]], is the largest religion in Olmeria, with around 45% of the population following it. Traditional [[Levantine Catholicism]], spread by migration and evangelism from the continent, is the second most popular at 21%. Traditional Nordic religions, classed under one banner for the purposes of general censuses, maintain a significant percentage, unlike anywhere else in the world, especially in the more rural regions of the nation. Following of Islam is also abundant in recent migrant communities from further afield. | |||

' | Religion in Olmeria is reflective of it's diverse and varying cultures, with no one religion followed by the majority of the population. Initially, it's important to note that the Olmerian state is strictly secular, meaning the government does not endorse any specific religion and government proceedings are entirely separate from religious influence or bodies. While there are three state recognised religions (Protestantism, Catholicism and Traditional Nordic), this is primarily for practical, legislative and historical reasons rather than a specific endorsement. | ||
