Because of the tourism rate in Tierrador and the presence of people from other cultures, it has prompted 91% of Tierradorian citizens in the 18-26 age range to learn languages other than Tierradorian and Spanish, leading to 61% of Tierradorians being able to speak 3 languages or more.

It is also one of the largest employers in Tierrador, with close to 2 million jobs created as of 2028. | ||
