Demographics
Languages
Osynstric and Umbrial are the co-official languages of Iolanthe. However, despite their equal status, Umbrial is no longer offered as a basic subject in the national curriculum. Since 1950, under the Official Languages Act, Umbrial is only acknowledged as an "optional language of our Suavidci heritage." It is only taught in specific schools, mostly private institutions.
Osynstric, as the native language, is the primary language of Iolanthi everyday life. Official government business both use Osynstric and Umbrial as spoken language. For their written language, it is only Osynstric. But public announcements and road signage are both in Osynstric and Umbrial. Advertisers also use both.
Expatriates learn and rely on Osynstric. Even Umbrial-speaking expats from Imperium Suavidci prefer to have Osynstric as a secondary language.
Iolanthe is multilingual. According to a 2018 survey, 51% (1,497,419) can speak Umbrial, 30% (880,834) can speak Scalvian, and 19% (557,862) can speak Santonian.
