Udenian (Language)
From NSWiki
Udenian is the official national language of New Uden. Udenian has evolved from Greek over the period of one and a half millennia, with Slavic and Germanic influences from Bulgarian and English explorers, who left gifts about their culture, such as literary works, in the early days of the formation of modern Udenian. The language is now more likely to be described as Slavic than Hellenic.
