[TurtleShroom]

Do Korean, Chinese, and Japanese have official statuses in your nation? If so, which ones?
Japanese is a language taught to TurtleShroomer diplomats because of our relations with the former Greater Imperial Japanese Dystopia. About a third of TS diplomats are fluid in Japanese.

TurtleShroom has a healthy Oriental population because of the massive exodous of persecuted followers of religion from Japanese Dystopia, which also controls the majority of China, all of Mongolia, parts of Siberia, and most of southeast Asia. They are assimilated into TS, so they don't really count. Only the first-generation immigrants speak those languages.
