 Around fT 2400, there was a great economic collapse in both Terra and Tricin (similar to the Collapse in Rosenfelder's Incatena setting). This resulted in the loss of, notably, [[Scellan]] as a lingua franca on Tricin and early 21st-century English as a lingua franca on Earth, which was quickly replaced with [[Clofabosin]] on both worlds. However, it did not enjoy the status of a lingua franca as Scellan and English previously.
-The sociopolitical superpowers of both worlds decided to try making lingua francas of their own, and the Germanic-speaking Europeans and the Hlou-Shum were the first to create them. Unlike Esperanto a few hundred years before, their conlangs - Akademiesprache and Wug Nlab respectively - were much more successful in reach. The former was created by the applied mathematicians, biologists, chemists, and specialists in other applied fields, and Wug Nlab was created by pure mathematicians, physicists, programmers, and specialists in other 'pure' fields.

 What is notable is the inclusion of astronomers and musicians in the group that created Wug Nlab, which could be a kind of revival of the quadrivium. However, they did not have much imagination: they decided to use Plu's ''Wug Bub'' as one of its bases.
