The vast majority of Volonians adhere to the [[Catholic Church]], of which 89% of the population are affiliated with. Although the vast majority of Catholics in Volonia are affiliated with the main Levantine Church (88.2%% of Catholics; 78.5% in total), there exists a sizeable minority of Catholics who are instead affiliated with the [[Caphiric Church]], a {{wp|particular church}} in full communion with the [[Pope]] in [[Urceopolis]] (11.8% of Catholics; 10.5% in total). The largest non-Christian group that Volonians are affiliated with are the seven percent of the population who adhere to no religion in particular, followed by the two percent of the population who adhere to the [[Qustanti Islam|Qustanti form of Islam]], the religion of the [[Qustantistan|Qustanti]] minority in Volonia, and a further combined two percent of the population who adhere to other forms of religion but are too small in numbers to make up a significant amount. | |||
Although the Catholic Church is the {{wp|state religion}} of Volonia, the constitution forbids the existence of any law designed to legally enforce the Catholic faith upon the populace, thus implicitly and tacitly granting {{wp|freedom of religion}} although without a formal constitutional guarantee. | |||

By 1985, educational attainment had reached world average levels, which it has since exceeded. | Volonian educational attainment is considered high by global standards, with it ranking above average in most global metrics.
