Mondolan


An alt-hist international auxiliary language (IAL) invented between 1889 and 1891 by Alexandre Leclercq, a French linguist and university professor. Created directly in response to an 1888 report by the American Philosophical Society that criticized the then-trending Volapük and set rules and guidelines for proper IAL creation, the language gained widespread popularity and garnered public and academic support. However, despite Leclercq's modest goals, Mondolan would soon die out due to mismanagement from the movement's newer generations of leaders, who would eventually sully the language's appeal.

This is essentially an alt-hist concept, but it started when I read the report and thought, "hey, what if someone tried to follow this to a T?"
