Demographics of Deltaria

Language
,

Although there are seven widely-spoken languages in Deltaria, only Daralian, Alazindian and Tokundian can be considered truly Deltarian, as they all evolved from the forgotten proto-Deltonic and belong to the Deltonic lingual group. Both Doron and Akigan are members of the Dunic group, Ushalandan is a branch of the Selucian tongue, and Dissuwan is a distant relative of the Jelbic.

Deltonic Languages
The official language in Czarist Deltaria is Daralian, considered the closest to proto-Deltonic, and widely spoken in and outside of the Darali region. Alazindian is the closest relative to Daralian and the two cultures have little difficulty understanding each other's tongue, especially owing to their close history together as a unified Daralizinder. Tokundian is distinctly seperate from Daralian and Alazindian, but follows the same lingual syntax and simple Tokundian phrases can usually be understood by speakers of other Deltonic tongues, and vice versa.

The written language causes more problems for inter-regional communication, as while the rest of the country adopted the Selucian alphabet, the Tokundians retained the use of the Glagolitic system.

Special characters used in Selucian Deltonic languages include:
 * Vowels: á ä é í ó ý ú
 * Diphthongs: ia, ie, iu, ô
 * Consonants: č ď dz dž ch ľ ĺ ň ŕ š ť ž

The Tokundian alphabet.

Dunic Languages
Doron, a more noble sounding dialect in the far west, even infiltrated new letters into its alphabet possibly due to its higher literacy rate. As a visitor you would be surprised at the difference between these and the Dissuwan, quite unpleasant sounding dialect, in the far east of the country.
