It had an population of 17,1 million people after estimates from 2017, with the goverment with holding any estimates the last few years after the nation faced international condemnation for it's treatment towards it's dwarven population. After the recent lost of a war against Norgsveldet and Dvalheim the current population of Tiervan is estimated by Norgsveltian and Dvalian authorieties to just be above 11,6 million.
