The national language of the United Socialist States of Sebastianalandia is (archaic) Zebaschanitzean.

It is essentially a mixture of German/Swedish and Russian. It is highly flexible, in that it can follow both German and English sentence structure.

Latin letters are used (an improvement on the old runes); letters are pronounced as in German.

English is also used, mainly for business, but Sebastianalandians are famous for their heavy accents.

Quechua and, to a much lesser extent, Zulu, are spoken in the autonomous regions. Most Sebastianalandians know at least a bit of Quechua.

The Empire speaks in many languages, reflecting its multi-ethnicity and its history of colonization. Two of the most used languages are English and Tagalog. A move for a Windican Unified Language has support, but more or less it will be only half enforced by the end of this year.

Latin - mainly Classical with some Vulgar mixed in, as well as some evolution and changes (for example, most spoken language, and most informal written language, uses the Subject-Verb-Object order of most modern languages; Classical Latin can be in any order but is most frequently Subject-Object-Verb).

Classical Greek is occasionally spoken by members of the upper class and in academia, English is increasingly popular, and many minorities choose to speak their own languages.
