In Angai, the Theasphere encompasses Europe and Northern Africa. The eastern part of the Alliance could also be included due to its Thean-speaking majority.

Languages

Before tonogenesis, there is a strong tendency towards analytic typology with strong stress accent, often word-final (Thean, Kua, Æ, Danishmandi). Unlike in our Europe, more languages are unrelated.

The most spoken language is Thean, spoken in most of continental Europe and North Africa; however, different and often unrelated languages (e.g. stages of Æ and Kua) are spoken in certain areas, especially islands:

  • British Isles: Various Keric languages
  • Scandinavia: Danishmandi
  • Hungary: Qocwane
  • Malta
  • Crete

Culture

Religion

Historically non-institutionalized polytheism; also a "Buddhist" and "Jain" hotspot

Modern-day (before the timeline split) religion is largely informal and syncretic, much like in OTL Japan

History

Relatively few major upheavals until the advent of capitalism

Mediterranean Era

Thean Era

Begins when the printing press is invented (or introduced from Angai New World?)

Modern issues
