Efforts by the [[Government of Urcea]] as well as cultural exchanges as part of the [[Levantine Union]] have largely failed to include people adhering to [[Derian identity]] - particularly those of Urcean nationality living in [[Transionia]] - within dual identity structure. Scholars have posited that the relative recentness of Transionia's incorporation, combined with severe ethnic tensions in and around [[Dericania]] since 1800, have made efforts at identity integration difficult. | Efforts by the [[Government of Urcea]] as well as cultural exchanges as part of the [[Levantine Union]] have largely failed to include people adhering to [[Derian identity]] - particularly those of Urcean nationality living in [[Transionia]] - within dual identity structure.

[[Urcea]] has three officially recognized languages, [[Julian Ænglish]], {{wp|Ecclesiastical Latin|Latin}}, and [[Lebhan language|Lebhan]], of which only Julian Ænglish is spoken on a regular basis by a vast majority of the population, used in business, personal, and official contexts. Abroad, Urceans speak Julian Ænglish, and their presence has made it an important language of diplomacy and business in [[Crona]] and especially in the [[Nysdra Sea Treaty Association]] states. | |||

Being a member of the [[Catholic Church]] - practicing or otherwise - is considered to be a vital part of Urcean identity, so much so that {{wp|Protestant}} and other faith Urcean nationals have assumed a completely different ethnic identity over the past five centuries known as [[Cisionian people]]. Cisionians assumed their identity not only from Urcean external views but from internal identity realization based on centuries of cultural isolation. | Being a member of the [[Catholic Church]] - practicing or otherwise - is considered to be a vital part of Urcean identity, so much so that {{wp|Protestant}} and other faith Urcean nationals have assumed a completely different ethnic identity over the past five centuries known as [[Cisionian people]].
