Message | The national language must be one, then everyone is free to learn other languages and to use them where there is someone that understand it! |

Message | We have absolutely no historical connections with the Dutch language. It is only spoken by a tiny minority in Mordussia. (http://particracy.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Search?search=Dutch&go=Go) We have been speaking English for millenia. (Search for "419 BCE Baltusia English introduced" on http://particracy.wikia.com/wiki/History_of_Seleya) |

Message | I know, I was confirming the latter should we *need* an official langauge. Many RW nations (the UK, the US, etc) do not have a de jure language, just a de facto one. |

Random fact: Moderation will not accept Cultural Protocol updates which introduce, on a significant scale, cultures which are likely to be insufficiently accessible to players. In particular, for all significant cultures in Particracy, it should be easy for players to access and use online resources to assist with language translation and the generation of character names. Moderation reserves the right to amend Cultural Protocols which are deemed to have introduced significant cultures that are not sufficiently accessible and which are not being actively role-played with. |
