Rikane (ethnonym: Rikano /ɹikanɒ/) is a member of the Parno-Rikane language family, primarily spoken in the Parnian subcontinent, which corresponds to the region around present-day Mongolia. The Rikivan people migrated from differents parts of the world, mainly from Parvikia (Levant) and and Sirka (Wu region of China), and regrouped themselves in Parnia, which lead to the development of Rikane, at the expense of the other languages that were brought by people who came from outside of the Parnian subcontinent. Because of this, we could technically say that Rikane is a lingua franca in the Parnian subcontinent
