About Küvval
Küvval is a Cënïk language of the Lüdro-Cätton language family whose constituents are native to the forested Cätton Subcontinent and the Lüdregci Peninsulas (pictured above) although the family probably originated in the steppes of Eastern Nirutgu.
Küvval is the most successful and most widely spread language of this very diverse family due to the success of its speakers: the Küvvtals, whose empire of old managed to conquer all of Lüdreg thousands of years ago. It is more or less the Persian of the Lüdregci languages; far from the only one, but certainly the most used.
The language is used as a lingua franca across much of the Hëkrinik continent, especially in cities and communities built during and after Klimsani governance (such as Kliporil).
