The German language is effectively spoken only in the diplomatic corps of TurtleShroom, for interfacing with Germanic cultured nations. No significant population of TurtleShroom speaks German or any dialect thereof.

My nation is strictly a fantasy nation in a parallel fantasy environment where our real world nations do not exist, conceptually, so technically there is no "German".
But I am using IRL German as a major component because that's my native tongue and my nation is to a large part a revivalist synthesis of various empires in history, chiefly among them Rome and the HRE.

Status of the German language in Dracunia: Official, first in precedence among the Realm's six co-official languages.
Dialect: Predominantly Upper German, most specifically the Austro-Bavarian dialect group.
Description: In the universe of Angvar the German language—specifically the Middle High German language—has been used to represent the Nemedian language in the way J.R.R. Tolkien used the Mercian dialect of Old English to represent Rohirric, a constructed language of the Rohirrim. As stated, Nemedian is one of the six co-official languages of the Dracunian Realm. About 78.62% of the Dracunian population speaks Nemedian, generally as their first language or as their second depending on regional variety, as well as the working language of the Dracunian government.

  • Status of German: Non-official
  • Dialect: Varies
  • Description: The introduction of the single market means that there is now a notable share of people who speak German, but the dialects vary depending who you ask. There was a small wave of German immigration in the mid-1990s, due to employment inequality caused by the dissolution of East Germany. The voter profile tends to alternate between CDU and SPD, followed by the Greens and FDP.
