Verse:
Mwail
Verse talk:

Mwail (/mʷail/ [mʷaiɬ], Ernish for 'world, Earth') is an alternate history Earth setting. (The point of divergence from our timeline is some point between the emergence of modern humans and Out of Africa, so we still have all Earth species including humans, but today's human languages are from completely different families)

Team

  • Inthar: Thean, Proto-Erno-Kawenic

Calendar

The calendar used is the Mwail Enlightenment calendar, where year 0 corresponds to the year when the number 0 was invented in Mwail India.

Out-of-universe, it was arbitrarily decided so that 2025 is the year where the future timelines split and is sociopolitically similar to our CE 2025.

Languages of Mwail

By number of speakers (2025):

  1. Ernish (Irenesian): 1.5 billion
  2. Dhasrawita (Irenesian): 1.2 billion
  3. Dosubian (Irenesian): 990 million
  4. Thean (Theic): 975 million
  5. Fursfop: 650 million
  6. Lhabhdweni (Irenesian): 420 million
  7. Wyacker (Pulchric): 290 million
  8. Séiseal (Qohtic): 260 million
