About Litovian
Litovian is a language spoken in the same timeline as 
Nióruais, 
Carpathian, and 
Musreen. It is spoken in what we know as Lithuania, based on Old French though influenced by Lithuanian and other Baltic languages in much the same way Nióruais is based on Old Irish influenced by Old Norse.
In 1129, Pope Lando the Just declared the Sixth Crusade, targeting the Kingdom of Lithuania and sought to bring an end to the reformed Romuva pagan religion, which had become very influential and widespread in many territories bordering the Baltic Sea including Lithuania and Sweden. Unlike other crusades, the Celts did not intervene--leaving King Onfroy Karling of Aquitaine to take on the land with no foreign assistance. In 1135, Onfroy successfully annexed Lithuania and instated one of his generals, Nicolas Berengling, to rule the kingdom independently of Toulouse.
As the Kingdom of Aquitaine eventually formed Carolingia and history marched on, the new Kingdom of Litovia began its own history, ultimately becoming a constitutional republic in 1773. In the early 19th century, the Republic of Litovia was vast and was able to successfully fend off the advances of Republican Russia in 1808, and later Carolingia in 1819.
