Awesome update. I would advise putting the images on Imgur, then just inserting them.

I had a cool idea: What if we make the Collaborative worlds I and II in the same solar system/galaxy? That way, we can make some sort of crossover stuff between the two!

Perhaps this culture could be matriarchal as a result?

Oh wow. I never realized how large the central continent was until now. Would it even be possible to sustain trade over these distances?

No prob. Before I learned about those sites, I actually had to take it from a txt file I had lying around somewhere. (Which was annoying, to say the least.)

Personally, I haven't been looking at the cradles much. I've been making a conlang for the *Dene-Yenesians in the eastern continent, though. Wich reminds me, The Eastern Continent won't be nearly as isolated as the Americas were in OTL, because of the islands. Perhaps there will still be some...

Yeah, after looking at the Wikipedia article, I think Elamite would be an interesting idea. If you haven't already started, I'm going to work on the proto-lang.

How about Basque? It would be cool to see some sort of Basque-Dene-Yenesian creole emerging on the East Continent.

Ah, ok. So should we just retcon the two groups into existence? And where exactly would we put them? I don't have any image editing stuff on my iphone, so perhaps you can place them? And what OTL language families would they be based off of? EDIT: I added a few references to other TLs in...

Well, they will. The point is, every place humans have inhabited have always had at least a few isolates, if not many different families with no genetic relationship. The Japanese have the Ainu, the Indo-Europeans have the Basque, etc. It just seems weird that the East Continent will be...

Ok, first, I don't know anything about anthropology, so I don't have much to contribute on that front. On that note, I've kind of abandoned my World Valley lang. I guess i'm not as creative as I thought. Anyway, I've started work on the *Proto-Dene-Yenesian language, and I just thought of...

Kangaroo boxing. This is now my favorite TL ever.

As an aside, do we happen to have a map of just the World Valley?

So to clarify: we're not actually deriving our languages from OTL languages, but just being inspired by them? Because that's fine with me. ...do you mind if I make something original for the World Valley people?
