General information
Xiani is a synthetic created around 107 BC by the inhabitants of Ixania as a form of unified communication before their bloody 700-year war known as the Seven Centuries' War. It was originially intended to included bits of the two groups Celtic and Hausa languages, but grew to became a very unique form of speech. Emphasizes on the sounds created by x, v, a, z, n, and i became the basis of the language, and from these letters (with the exception of v and z), the name "Ixania" originated.

Xiani was enforced as the new language of the two kingdoms on the main island of Ixania under pain of death. The inhabitants quickly picked up the language, though there were many issues speaking it as few knew how to work the speech (largely on the Hausa side), though fear of torture moved many to learn it out of purely self-preservation. The language managed to remain unified with little variation in speech patterns throughout the Five Century War, and even managed to grow and spread new words that one side of the island had not known.

Given the Ixanians hostile and sadistic nature, and the ban on Ixanian citizens travelling to other countries, the language is rarely found outside of Ixania, with the rare exception of lingustics hired by national governments seeking to translate the language for spying purposes do to lack of exposure to it. The Ixanian language is spoken by some 150 million people worldwide, most of these speakers originating from the home islands.
