{{main|w:Old English{{!}}Tretridian language}}
The primary language spoken within Tretrid and used by the Tretridian government is [[w:Old English|Tretridian]].
Languages that hold some sort of official status with the government include [[w:Italian language|Norvian]], Peyeterin, [[Staynish]], and [[w:Norwegian language|Norgsveltian]]. Various forms meant to be filled out by the public, such as ballots and tax filings, are required to be available in those languages by federal statute.
===Religion===
About 44% of Tretridians are of the [[Ulvriktru]] faith, as that religion was brought over by Norgsveltian settlers in the 11th century, and slowly became embedded in Tretrid over time. When Gustaf II of Norgsveldet made himself the head of the Ulvriktru religion, the Tretridians following the Ulvriktru faith rejected the authority of the King and instead continued following the Gothirs.

About 1% of Tretridians are [[Thaerism|Thaerist]], as Thaerism spread to Tretrid as a result of increasing interaction with Great Morstaybishlia. Around 1.6% of Tretridans are [[Ademarism|Ademarist]], and around 1.3% of Tretridians are [[Akronism|Akronist]].
===Education===
Tretridian public education is mainly overseen by the Tretridian Ministry of Education, which sets the General Curricular Standards (GCS), a set of universal educational standards that apply for all schools within Tretrid. However, the day-to-day operation and funding of schools is overseen by the provinces, which is also granted leeway to set additional standards with approval from the Ministry of Education. Preschooling is available but optional from age 3, though kindergarten is mandatory at age 5 in some provinces. Education in Tretrid is compulsory from ages 5 to 18, where primary education lasts from ages 6 to 10, and secondary education lasts from ages 11 to 18. The vast majority of Tretridian students are educated in public schools, with about 6% of them going to private schools. Private schools are heavily regulated by the federal government, and students at private schools have to be given the General Curricular Examination (GCE) at the end of each academic year to ensure both that the students are at or above the educational level prescribed for their age group and that the school does an adequate job at educating students according to the GCS.
Most universities in Tretrid are public universities, and tuition is generally paid for by the federal government. The usual requirement for attending a given university is the Curricular Preparedness Examination (CPE), which consists of a series of exams administered by the government in certain subjects. However, some of the most prestigious universities in Tretrid, such as the University of Cynebury, have more stringent CPE requirements and may also require a minimum GPA in order to maintain a certain desired class size.
