The Language of Iron (Görök: Gör Níyölm) is one of eight Níyölmanórsk languages, itself a part of the Görkök subgroup. The language was adopted as the national language of Görkírsk in 352 BW after the introduction of the Matyös Decree, that had resulted in the centralization of the First Görkírsk Kingdom under the reign of Jankoti II, during his national unification process. The languages history dates as far back as 4,000 BW, when the application of a modern writing system and more importantly the Goerkoek Runic Alphabet for the Görkök language, and later the introduction of the Latin alphabet to Görkírsk in 352, when latin writing was standardized and the runic alphabet faded into irrelevancy.

Geographic Distribution

The Görök language is one of the most widely spoken throughout the kingdom of Görkírsk, being the first language of five and a half million of the kingdoms citizens, and being the second language of almost eight million more. Despite being considered the "national" language of Görkírsk, It's brother and sister languages have a larger first-language speaker population in total when combined. The language has seen a steady decline since the end of the Great War, as the nations new constitutions abolished a number of important federal policies that had previously encouraged its spread. Mandatory teaching in schools was repealed after the introduction of the new constitution, and the Görkírsk Wars that plagued the nation in the aftermath of the great war caused a great deal of decentralization that would destroy the nations sense of unity, fueling separatist movements and motivating a number of influential cultural revitilization movements that prioritized the teaching of their native languages, rather than the national language.

Classification

The Görök language is universally considered to be the father of the Níyölmanórsk languages, being the direct successor of its predecessor, the Görkök language, which had a choppy and undefined vocabulary in comparison. The transition from the runic alphabet to the Latin alphabet and the states printing of dictionaries smoothed out the language and established rules and order that effectively modernized the language into what it is today. The Görök language is considered to be the simplest of it's brother and sister languages due to it's refined structure and fewer number of grammatical cases.
