The Zhoushi language is a Slavic language out of Kento-Polyash language group, which is a official language of Zhousheng and a official federal language in Mustelaria along with Belgorian and Neo-Mustelarian.
History
The Zhoushi language developed out of a synthesis two seperate languages, Bogmian, spoken in the historical areas of Bogmia, and Slavic Zhengian, spoken in the historical Zhengia. The Bogmian language was a child language to the Proto-Slavic language, while Slavic Zhengian was a macaronic language developed out of Old Zhengian, which was a language related to Preimeai, Zaprei and Phnom languages with extremely strong influence of the previously mentioned Bogmian.
Protohistory
Shortly after the Slavic migration and establishment of the Slavic belt in southern Thuadia, the languages began to differentiate. Slavs in the Mustelarian plain slowly formed a compact Proto-Polyash language, which in at around 5th century split into multiple dialects, which later merged and diversified, forming many languages currently present in the area (Zhoushi, Belgorian, Karaalani, Ulevan and Slovanic, as well as now extinct High Mustelarian).
Specifically, at the end of the 8th century, Ablative case got resurrected under yet unknown conditions in Bogmian. This change is often regarded as the beginning of the history of the Bogmian language proper.
Bogmian Empire
At around 800 AD, the first compact version of a language that later came into history as "Bogmian" was created in present day Plavlino and surrounding area. At the same time, the first ever compact country was formed in the region, the Bogmian Empire. The Empire came to occupy Zhengia and making it a Bogmian vassal for almost 300 years. At that time, Bogmian language absorbed multiple dialects, mostly in the central and northern areas.
At that time, the Old Zhengian language, not being Thuado-Thrismaran, but Prei-Phnom, was first introduced to the Slavic grammatical base, being subjected to foreign occupation and partial colonisation. At that time, Old Zhengian adapted grammatical numbers, as well as partial creation of grammatical cases (Protoversions of Zhengian subjective and objective cases).
Over the span of 300 years, in which the Bogmian Empire existed, Zhengian population, especially the northern parts and rural areas, was filled with Bogmian settlers. At the moment of collapse of the empire in 1103 AD, many areas in Zhengia have been already intermixed Old Zhengian-Bogmian.
The Dark Ages
After the Empire collapsed, areas of historic Bogmia and Zhengia shatterred into many protostates and small nations, which quickly began attacking each other. This era, colloquially named "The Dark Ages", was effectively a blow to the Old Zhengian language, which quickly began to deteriorate. Kaȝin Christianity, which was formed at around that time in Bogmia, caused many Zhengian noblemen to strictly oppose and persecute the local inteligence, fearing the spread of Kaȝinism south to the detriment of Kammism, to which their power was tied. Although this persecution was effective in securing their position, the language quality of Old Zhengian took a heavy blow.
With the more high-positioned Old Zhengian speakers, the macaronic Bogmio-Zhengian managed to take a deep root in Zhengia, being de facto the lingua franca of Zhengia by 1530. This new mostly Slavic-root language with heavy Old Zhengian influence is named "Slavic Zhengian"
Zhengian Experiment
– Korim the Terrible (Duke of Zhengia)
With the downfall of Old Zhengian in lower classess and the creation of Slavic Zhengian, the nobility grew scared of a possible alienation of lower nobelty and uprising that could cost them not only their positions, but also their lives. After the unification into a larger Duchy of Zhengia, the ruler Korim the Terrible (at the time known as Korim the Speaker) set a series of decrees hoping to get a resurgence of Old Zhengian to the lower nobility and cities. The Korim dynasty, starting with the "National Protection Decree" from 1591 started stepping up against the new cultural monolith that excluded themselves.
The moment this action was undertaken, many local lords, barons and lower dukes rose in open rebellion against the central authority. Although numerous, those uprising were put down, which only resulted in further decrease of the Old Zhengian power, as many of those noblemen were Old Zhengian natives and rose up because they assumed that the prescribtions against Slavic Zhengian are only a casus belli so the central authority can establish itself better to the detriment of the lower houses.
After the rebellions were suppressed, the authors writing in both Old and Slavic Zhengian were mostly enraged by the new censorship rules regarding the language use, as many archaic Old Zhengian words were no longer recognizable by the new generations and Old Zhengian effectively shrunk in vocabulary to the most basic terms used by the rich. As a result, many of those authors fled for Bogmia, where they started writing literature instead. Although writing in Slavic Zhengian, many words from the hybrid, as well as limited vocabulary from Old Zhengian found their way through those texts into the Bogmian language.
After the failed experiment, Old Zhengian language went extinct even in the Zhengian nobility, and in 1698, Slavic Zhengian was declared an official language of the state, although its literaray form wasn't developed until 1728.
The Empire
Shortly after the creation of the Empire of Three Kings, populations of the three kingdoms, but especially in border areas of Bogmia and Zhengia began to intermix. Due to somewhat strict rules on religion, many Catholic Bogmians fled Bogmia, which declared Kaȝin Christianity as its official religion, for Qazhshava, where they created a linguistic enclave of Bogmian, which didn't integrate into the future Zhoushi language and conservated into the Pustogorian Bogmian language, which is the only surivivng dialect of the Bogmian language outside of the hybrid Zhoushi.
With the First and Second Western Imperial Wars, waves of Bogmian settlers entered ethnically Haldenian territory. Haldenia, until then, spoke a seperate Slavic languages, most notably Haldeno-Louzen languages, from which only Louzen survived to the present day, and Rohynrish branches, which created the backbone to the western Zhoushi dialects.

Orthography and phonology
Introduction
The language has a slavic root and grammar, however, unlike other slavic languages, has 8 grammatical cases (other have 7 or 6). Also, there are about 700 Zhengian words in present day Zhoushi language, they are inflected using Bogmian grammar. Old Zhengian, having been descendant out of Prei-Phnom languages, was slowly assimilated into Slavic grammar, having transformed into Slavic Zhengian. Because of the Zhengian accents profilerating, Zhoushi language has 40 unique phonemes, 2 of which are exclusive to Zhoushi language (those are /r̝̊/ (Voiceless alveolar fricative trill)[5] and /ȴ̩/ (Syllabic voiced alveolo-palatal lateral approximant)).
Alphabet
After the reform of 1912, when Bogmian language officially abandoned Protopolyash script in favor of the new Latin script, hoping to solve the problematic grammar, as multiple phonemes shared one symbol (such as "i" and "j" were both noted as "ⲓ") Three official versions of the new script had been made:
A a | B b | C c | Ч ч | D d | Đ đ | Ƌ ƌ | E e | Є є | F f |
G g | Џ џ | H h | Ȝ ȝ | I i | J j | K k | L l | Λ λ | M m |
N n | Ƞ ƞ | O o | Ө ө | P p | Q q | R r | Ꝛ ꝛ | S s | Ш ш |
T t | Ꞇ ꞇ | Þ þ | U u | V v | Ƿ ƿ | X x | Y y | Z z | Ʒ ʒ |
- Grapheme version: This version was later adopted as the official alphabet of the new Zhoushi language in 1984, uses special symbols for each phoneme
- Diacritic version: This version uses basic latin alphabet and solves the phonemes by adding diacritic symbols. Although still being recognized as a acceptable version of the language, it is barely used.
- Digraph version: This version uses digraphs to sign specifical phonemes. It was dropped in early 1950's, as it didn't solve the main reason why Bogmians abandoned the Protopolyash script in the first place.
Zhoushi, although not officially using it, sometimes used lenghtened marks for vowels and syllabic consonants. Those symbols were used in some historical transcripts, but were eventually faded in pre-1950's unification proposals and didn't make it into the official grammar of 1984.

Numbers
Until 1970's, Zhousheng used dozenal numerical system, substituting 10 a 11 with ᚴ and ⵒ. The last symbol used was so called "Cyclic symbol", which was used for twelve-step cycles and sets of twelve parts, which was written as ᘐ.
This system can be still seen for example on the Zhoushi clock faces, which are still using the old system, writing it as 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-ᚴ-ⵒ-ᘐ.

World Peace Manifesto
World Peace Manifesto is the founding agreement, that formed the Anterian World Assembly. The document, although being written in Common was originally written by Mustelarian prime minister Jeliþo Pogөf, a native Zhoushi, who later translated this matterial into Zhoushi. Interactive translation includes the first paragraph of the text:
