Inuðemáȝ had largely changed into Inuðemáȝalaxi by the turn of the century 300 years ago, and the last speakers died out 200 years ago, with the great turmoil and religious change of this time, including the Manifold Purge (slivo gu'u) and the harimaqa'a sufika which greatly influenced and altered the language, and the ma'aliṣon invasion, in which the language lost 92% of its speakers and 94% of the Inuðemáȝ Kingdom.
