Rihawathanwan

The Rihawathanwan language is the language of the Rihawathanan peoples of North America, and the primary spoken language of the Anathanwan Confederacy. Rihawathanan is estimated to have 93,000,000 speakers throughout the world; most of its speakers are concentrated in Anathan. Rihawathanwan is an Iroquoian language, of Rihawathanwan to itself. The language is one of the few languages of Anathan to have adopted the Latin script, one of the many reasons the tribe itself succeeded in the face of European colonization among others.

The Rihawathanwan that is spoken today is estimated to be thousands of years old, though its exact origins have not been precisely found by linguistic scholars. Despite being related to other Iroquoian languages historically, it is distinctly different from languages spoken by smaller tribes throughout Anathan. Rihawathanwan has become a large language as it was spoken by its namesake tribe, which expanded until it had influence over most of Anathan. The language is now a recognized United Nations language, and its native speaking base continues to grow larger as its namesake nation grows steadily in population.
