About Proto-Baxkal
Proto-Baxkal is the ancestor of the Baxkal languages (yet to be invented), loosely based on Basque. It began as the language of an early-Bronze Age tribal culture living in a hilly, somewhat mountainous environment, such as that of the Basque Country. Intensely tribal, the Baxkal languages would at some point divide into three major camps: the Pellic languages, spoken by a largely agricultural and foreigner-friendly tribe, the Nazhar languages, spoken by the more warlike of the old Baxkal tribes, and the Bahhalt languages, a group of languages which have deviated little from Proto-Baxkal, spoken by a relatively small and isolated group of tribes whose local languages have as little relation to each other as they do to any Pellic or Nazhar language.
