The term "Marleyans" refers to the inhabitants of the nation of Marley in the fictional world of Attack on Titan. They are known for their military strength and advanced technology, particularly in the use of Titan powers. Marleyans often view themselves as superior to the Eldians, who are marginalized and oppressed within their society. Marleyans are primarily depicted as the ruling class, controlling the narrative around the Titans and the history of the Eldians. Their government employs propaganda to maintain power and justify their actions against the Eldians, who are often portrayed as a threat. This dynamic plays a crucial role in the overarching conflict of the series.
