Xanian (Xâkömari, /ʒakømɑrɪ/) is a North Atlantic language spoken by 5.6 million people, and the official language of Xania. It is a member of the Xanic language family, and largely regarded as a language isolate, the second largest of its type in the world after Korean. For centuries, the Xanian language has remained distinct and separate from the rest of the languages around it, with little influence on the language until Xania's emergence into the world community in the late-1800s. Virtually nothing is known of the language's prehistory, and all information on when it first appeared in Xania exists, leaving many to speculate that the language arrived with its current inhabitants, the Xanians.
