Koskenkorva represents a unique cultural fusion of Coscivian and | Koskenkorva represents a unique cultural fusion of Coscivian (that is to say, Cosco-Adratic) and Elutic culture. In the centuries since the Cromwelute Wars, the Koskenkorvan Coscivians and Koskenkorvan Elutes have come to generally consider themselves a single people differentiated into Coscivian-speaking and Elutic-speaking communities. Koskenkorvans account for over 90% of the state's population, with about 55% of the total being primarily Elutic-speaking and 35% of the total primarily speaking Koskenkorvan Coscivian. Due to linguistic and local administrative reforms in the 21190s, individuals can only report themselves as Elutophone, Coscophone, or Other/Deaf for administrative purposes such as school enrolment and [[Passport system in the Kiravian Federacy|internal passports]]. However, an estimated 6-10% of ethnic Koskenkorvans are natively bilingual, many of whom were raised in cross-linguistic households. | ||

The state government does not recognise this distinction. | ||

Religious life in Koskenkorva's true cities and larger towns is not altogether different from that of smaller cities and towns in Northeast and North Coast Kirav. In rural Koskenkorva, religion is, like everything else, a community affair, and most villages have only one congregation to which everyone belongs. Weekly church attendance in rural Koskenkorva is "effectively 100%", according to the Coscivian Orthodox Diocese of Kosovo. | Religious life in Koskenkorva's true cities and larger towns is not altogether different from that of smaller cities and towns in Northeast and North Coast Kirav.

The immediately pre-Christian religious environment of Koskenkorva is a matter of some debate, but the most commonly accepted characterisation is a foundation of Cosco-Adratic folk religion overlaid with Sarostivism and diverse syncretic elements from various Coscivian monotheist movements and primordial nature-centred rituals. The island was gradually Christianised during the Xth century, with missionary work begun by Celtic apostles from the Levantine mainland and seen through by later generations of [[Ĥeiran Coscivians|Ĥeiran Coscivian]] churchmen. The largest religious bodies in Koskenkorva are the Coscivian Orthodox Church, Insular Apostolic Church, and Catholic Church, followed by the Koskenkorvan People's Church, a Lutheran denomination. There are clear regional patterns as to the denominational affiliation of village churches.

There are clear regional patterns as to the denominational affiliation of village churches. Cosco-Adratic villages on the west coast tend to be Insular Apostolic and Elutic villages Lutheran or Orthodox. The hinterland is more uniformly Orthodox and the northeast coast is mixed Orthodox/Apostolic with an Orthodox majority. The southeast coast and far south are more mixed, with a Catholic plurality. The far north has a larger Lutheran minority. | ||
