Tangaran culture is extremely prevalent in Helenan society, and influences developed here such as cocoa drinking and festivals such as the [[Rōpūrangi Festival]] have become nationally integrated. Helena is home to the most [[Interior Department (Meridon)| Interior Department]] recognized Natural Heritage Sites of any territory in Meridon. Helena produces a large amount of foodstuffs, including rice, wheat, sugarcane, dairy products, livestock, and other such products.
