A power struggle?

Kanatistan

After finalizing the controversial "Cultural Acts", which include regulations on language, writing, clothing, names, etc., the People's Assembly has reached a divide. The problem is the fact that earlier this year, Arabic replaced all other languages as the official language of Kanatistan (And is mandatory to learn), most people agree halfway, they do not like the Crylic alphabet introduced during the soviet era and wish to revert to Arab Script. The extremists however, such as Mohammad Kretsky want all people to know Arabic so as to be closer to "What Allah wishes."

A vote have been cast in the people's assembly to decide what should happen next.

Allah does not care whether you speak Arabic or not, if he is almighty, then he can understand you in any language.

Anyway, seeing as it seems you are not an Arab nation, we suggest your native languages (Tajik, Kyrgyz, etc.) become your official languages in the Latin alphabet.

[Blakullar]

We suggest for you to make a return to Russian as the official language. We also suggest that you throw this Kretsky chap off a cliff for suggesting that your government advocate such vile mind-poison. Or better yet, hand him over to us so that Thought Reassignment can savagely torture him into conformity teach him the error of his ways.

Our recommendation is making Russian and Arabic co-official languages at the national level, with native languages having official status in the provinces where they are in the majority, with the Arabic script being the sole official script- Russian, Arabic, and the native languages would all be written in Arabic.

Before The soviets changed the way they wrote their languages, Uzbek, Kazakh and Kyrgyz used Arabic script to write words I their languages, Tajiks Use a Persian-Arabic Script. Mohammad Kretsky is one of the leaders of The Saifullah Front, a Turkic Nationalist group/Islamic Fundamentalist group. They believe since mosques use Arabic that the entire muslim population (and in extension all citizens of Kanatistan) should speak Arabic. Although popular for their other policies, their "Culture Acts" have caused some uproar, especially in the Tajik/Persian, and Russian Populations, as well in the Communist supporting lands. I recommend you read some of our fact books.

I Hope it doesn't tie.

Auzkhia recommends you keep your native languages alive and make them your official languages, with your native script. Russian and Arabic can be learned as foreign languages.

We figured as much. Our proposal was one that seemed like a win-win compromise. Many nations have multiple official languages, and individual provinces or states often can have their own co-official languages that reflect the local heritage. We have done so quite effectively in Korintar. As the Arabic script is popular and the script traditionally used by the various linguistic groups in Kanatistan and the locals don't like using Cyrillic anyway, we suggested you adopt the Arabic script as the official script. Our proposal affirms the rights of non-Arabic speaking peoples in your nation while, hopefully, appeasing the leadership of The Saifullah Front. It also reflects the history and culture of your nation having been under the soviet sphere and now attaining independence and allows you to effectively draw upon the support of the other former Soviet republics and the Russian sphere of influence while also drawing upon the support of the Muslim and Arabic speaking worlds. If interested, the Atlantic Union of Korintar would be interesting in establish economic and diplomatic relations with your country.

Well as I said, Crylic (the current alphabet) is not the original, they used Arabic script for their languages.

OoC: I was reading your factbook some more. I think the two of us would be good friends in real life, since we agree on most things. I think our main point of disagreement would be the nature of Christ and his relationship to God/Allah, but that was not a big deal for the Prophet Mohammed in his friendships and alliances from what I've read.

[Kanatistan]
