Etymology

After the fall of Dexter Hunnigan's dictatorship, the then revolutionary group - Red Freedom - nominated Massox Carpenter as interim President of the Daxton. Unfortunately, Massox's body had weakened over 7 years of brutality by the dictator - and he passed away 2 months before the Constitution was adopted. Interim Cabinet proposed the country and currency to be named after Massox, which was well received.

Language

An international business meeting at Proctor.

Following the 'One Nation, One Language' policy of Article 5 of the Constitution, Mercanti was adopted as the official and predominant language in Mazdia to accommodate international relations, trade and tourism. Gojan, Rafhb, Tagapa are also spoken and written - but only to the extent of formal communications. All educational institutions require students to take Mercanti and at least one of 3 above languages.

Indica and Brennae are now near extinct languages which were prominently spoken pre-1500s before transitioning to Mercanti influence from merchants. Uses of both are found at archaeological sites, literary works, and daily informal language such as proverbs and idioms.
