About Viedhoźan
Viedhoźan
Viedhoźan is spoken natively as an L1 by around 45,000,000 people in the country of Viedhauźe and as an L2 mainly in the countries of Wagaúe and Meacieauci. Standard Viedhoźan is an amalgamation of a two major dialects; the dialect of the province Ieha, and the dialect of the province Lobhoźauźe, also known as "The Capitolects" as they are home to the two most influential former capitols of the ancient Ítha Empire, who spoke Íthasran, the parent to all modern, living languages of the Dápos branch of the Gwédga Language Family.

In a time where time was not as it is, when the seas churned with a rage rivaling that of Chrec's rage, and the feet of the gods still trampled earth's grass, there lived a feeble vagrant, unlucky, crude and vile, unfavored by the world, but soon to be favored by the gods. The world was in danger, the existance of everything hung in the balance.
