Lievian. It's in the same language family as Icelandic, Swedish, Norwegian and Danish, with Yiddish/Hebrew and German influence from the Jewish immigrants that migrated in the 11th-14th centuries. Local villages, especially in the Northernmost part of the nation, tend to have their own dialect. Those in the cities are more fluent in English, with younger generations more fluent than older generations. Many speak Lievian and another Scandinavian language fuently, usually Swedish, Norwegian or Finnish.

English is the preferred language in most international contexts, but German is commonly spoken in the more populous states of Ravemath. The major cities and the states of Ravenshire and Coronixia are pretty diverse with significant numbers of people of Dàguó descent, so Chinese is pretty common there.

Aryanastan speaks Farsi as the majority of the population is of ethnic Persian descent. However, there exist minority languages such as Arabic. Kurdish and Hebrew became prominent minority spoken languages in the latter half of the 20th century after an exodus of oppressed Kurds and Jews from Iraq and Jordan fled to Aryanastan to seek refuge. Additionally, English has been made a mandatory extra-curricular language in schools and institutions.
Persian Republic of Aryanastan

Aryanastan is a secular oil-rich Persian nation with a proud history sharing its roots with Iran mainly through shared Persian culture. However, relations between the Aryanastan Persian Republic and the Islamic Republic of Iran are not so good right now, mainly because of ideological differences. The nation is both an envy of the Middle East due to its stability and also a source of hatred for its secularism and friendly ties with Israel.

Guinness World Record gave the title to Aryanastan as the world's longest uninterrupted military dictatorship, having ruled the country since 1964.

The official languages of the Democratic Republic are English, Japanese, and Russian. Under Gandoorese law, each official language has equal status and all governmental services are required to be made available in all three languages.

The most widely spoken of our three official languages is English, with 79% of the population reporting fluency in English. Japanese is also widely spoken, with 73% reporting to be fluent in Japanese. Fluency in both English and Japanese is also fairly common, with 60% of the population reporting to understand both languages.

Russian is spoken by 29% of the population and is the predominant language in Freena Yon, which is effectively a monolingual yon and is home to 60% of the Russian-speaking population in Gandoor. Practically all Russian-speakers outside of Freena Yon are also fluent in English and 4% are fluent in Japanese as well.

In addition to the three official languages, all native indigenous languages are designated as protected languages under Gandoorese law and their continued usage is considered to be an important part of maintaining Native Gandoorese culture and heritage.

The Korean language is also widely spoken, albeit with no legal recognition, and is understood by 19% of the population.
