About Classical Algaz
The dialect of the city of Hafsigh, now known as Classical Algaz, was one of a number of closely related dialects spoken along the east coast of Argeyaz Bay and in the desert that now comprises the center of the Algazi Union. The extension of Hafsighi power across the region saw the eventual displacement or assimilation of these other early Algaz dialects.
