The official language of Salmuria which all Salmurians are expected to be able to speak is [[Salmurian Language| Salmurian]]. The modern Salmurian language is one of the only surviving [[Wikipedia:Anatolian Languages| Anatolian]] languages and its modern form has taken much from the influence of the local [[Wikipedia:Ainu Language| Ainu]] and [[Wikipedia:Malayo-Polynesian languages| Malayo-Polynesian languages]]. There is also another rarer form of Salmurian called [[High Salmurian]] which retained much more old Anatolian features than modern Salmurian but it is used primarily in law and among the elite but with the modernization of Salmuria, High Salmurian is considered an endangered language.
====Introduction====
<br>
The [[Salmurian Language]] is part of the [[Wikipedia:Anatolian languages|Naciwan Languages]] and currently the widest spoken Naciwan langauge with the rest mostly being spoken only within Salmuria.
<br>
 
Salmuria has always been an important stopping point for trade going between mainland Atusia and the [[Savang sub-continent]] and for this reason it is common for many young Salmurians and those living in coastal towns and cities like [[Salmus]] to be bi or tri-lingual with foreign languages.
The language uses largely [[Wikipedia:Lydian Language|Sfardan]] derived grammar, and has only 3 grammatical cases. The Salmurian Alphabet, is written right to left.

Salmuria (Salmurian: Sarlêtiš 𐤮𐤠𐤭𐤩𐤣𐤶𐤯𐤦𐤳), officially the Great Nation of Salmuria, Abode of Heavenly Peace (Salmurian: 𐤠𐤫𐤫𐤥𐤶𐤮𐤦 𐤲𐤠𐤪𐤲𐤤𐤩𐤠 𐤮𐤠𐤭𐤩𐤣𐤶𐤯𐤦𐤳, 𐤡𐤦𐤭𐤠 𐤹𐤦𐤥𐤠𐤮-𐤲𐤤𐤩𐤠𐤫𐤰 𐤪𐤦𐤤𐤭𐤠𐤣) is an independent island country in Atusia in the Sea of Kasai and its closest neighbor is Kendal. it is officially a temple state governed by the 3 avatar gods of the Qibirad, however, most of the day to day governance is conducted through a large bureaucratic system with a tricameral parliament. It has roughly 90 million inhabitants. Salmuria also has 3 official capital cities being Enkoth, Salmus, and Idulula each named for their Qibirad incarnate god with Idulula being largest of the 3 and hosting the Lower and Upper houses of the Annilaleaara.

Etymology

Salmuria is an anglicized version of the native name "Sarldêtiš", it is unknown exactly where the name Sarldêtiš comes from but it is most likely believed to come from either the original name of one of the 3 capital cities or from an old Naciwas kingdom in mainland Atusia.

History

Pre Naciwas History

Before the arrival of the Naciwans the island of modern Salmuria was inhabited primarily by Moreuans in the North and East, and Malays in the South who have established multiple small trading clans and kingdoms.

Arrival of the Naciwas

It is unclear exactly when the Naciwas migrations started but it is most likely it began during the decline and collapse of Naciwan kingdoms on mainland Atusia in the northern Sea of Kasai region. The migrations and conquest of Salmuria began with bands of Naciwan Mercenaries being invited by certain Moreuan or Malayic clans to later settle in the fertile Western coasts. Soon the income of Naciwans would increase exponentially with entire family clans migrating over, and colonies of Naciwan cities back in northern Atusia being established. The Naciwans would overtime greatly outnumber the native populations on the island and Naciwan religion would dominate gradually evolving into modern Qibirad.

Religion

Qibirad is the official state religion of Salmuria with the vast majority of Salmuria expected to follow some form of it. Other religions are largely practiced by ethnic minorities and foreigners residing in port cities where they are permitted to construct their own religious temples, the most famous example of this is in the port city and capital Salmus.

Salmuria's Armed Forces consist of the Green Standard Army, the The Four Banners, the Qibirad Millitant Orders, and the Salmurian Navy. There is no separate air force branch as the four banners and the green standard army each maintain their own planes as does the Salmurian navy.
