The "New World" (all other continents) is nowadays often dominated (esp. Púríton and northern Céránento) by speakers of Evandorian languages introduced in the colonial era, but some areas where native languages survive have a very high diversity. Such clusters include southern Púríton, large parts of inland Fárásen, eastern Ogúviutón, and inland Écáreton (Queáten's largest island). In the Old World, the areas with the widest language diversity are western and southwestern Védren and the southern rainforests of Márusúturon. In most of the landmass, however, successive migrations and invasions have led to only a few major groups to prevail. Scattered isolates (or members of other families, including e.g. Yombu-Raina languages in central-western Márusúturon or all non-Chlouvānem Lahob languages) still persist in some areas, especially more remote mountains, taiga, or other isolated areas. | The "New World" (all other continents) is nowadays often dominated (esp.
