Etymology
The name Molenston originates from the largest tribe in the region; the Malesti tribe.
Demographics
The population of Molenston, based off of Government of Molenston Surveys and national data statistics from Molsource, the Commonwealth Information Initiative and the Ziambani Tribal Analytics Organization is estimated to be between 54,005,642 and 54,517,156 people. Most place the total to be at 54,217,156 which represents official metrics used in most databases worldwide. This discrepancy comes from a lack of cohesion among Molenston's data sourcing metrics, as well as a sizable migratory population, which moves over the course of multiple years from Molenston to the neighbouring nation of The Bohin and back.
Molenston's people are divided up into 122 officially documented tribes as well as a sizable western minority population, mainly from Rhodevus, Aznazia and Northern Ventismar.
Official consensus places the Malesti tribe as the largest in the nation with 35% of Molenstoni people in this group. Westerners comprise 10% with Kuum (7%), Buli (4%), Bagan (3%), Domeshi (3%), Ra (2%), Mbati (2%), Nuduli (1.5%) Qafa (1%) and Nanti (0.15%) filling out the majority of the larger tribal groups in the region. The remaining 31.5% of the population consists of the other 112 tribes, with the Spedi people being the smallest, being comprised of only 24 members.
Language
The official language of Molenston is English. It is the only language taught in all primary schools, and almost all business is done in English. The most spoken language however on a day to day basis in Maleti, spoken by 54% of all Molenstoni people.
Religion
Molenston is primarily a Christian nation, which accounts for 74% of the population. The largest Christian demographic in Molenston is Catholicism, accounting for 66% of the population. The remaining practitioners of Christianity are subdivided into other sects with a large portion comprising of those with mixed tribal-Christian beliefs which go under the broader umbrella of Christianity, but is more specifically known as Kurdu in Molenston. 'Kurdu' meaning 'son of the saviour' in Malesti.
Islam comprises the second largest religion in Molenston with nearly 12 million followers.
While religion does not play a significant role in Molenstoni society, it has ingrained itself in Molenstoni culture, mixing with tribal beliefs and structures to take on enumerable different meanings depending on tribe and region of Molenston.
Health
Education
Primary education in Molenston is mandatory. Public schools are funded by the government for people until the conclusion of grade 9. Secondary education, often considered grades 10 through 12 is heavily subsidized and has been since the 1970s in order to continue promoting further education in the nation. While 85% of the population has completed or enrolled in primary education, secondary education sees a drop-off of about 35%. Tertiary education, or university sees only a 33.72% enrollment rate. However, it should be noted that this is an increase since 1990 of 25% and that 72.13% of those who complete secondary education will continue on to tertiary schooling.
The Molenstoni government, along with support from its allies, primarily Rhodevus, have established further education programs to promote continuing education, which include subsidizing of secondary schools as well as grants for universities to accept larger numbers of students.
There are 27 universities (11 public, 16 private) in Molenston and 15 university colleges (4 public, 11 private) which are regulated by the Molenstoni Commission for universities.
