Earth'

Earth-Prime, as in "apostrophe-like thing", not "primary". Not as much as a conworld as much as a place to dump phonology sketches on. Regardless, they have quite a bit of interaction so some fleshing-out is inevitable.

Ruff divergence outline:

• "Present day" is around 15000 BCE by absolute chronology. Highest level of technology is mostly mid 1800sy, more advanced in eg. material sciences (rudimentary quantum physics) but less advanced in eg. geography & astronomy (1600s-ish).
• Homo sylvatica, on the general level of development of H. erectus, survives in northern woodlands of continental Eurasia as well as a separate subspecies in southeast Asia.
• A possible third hominid species survives in southern Africa?

Name	Status	World-internal size	Areal(ish) features contained	Location
Altaic'	Sketch++	Major family	Uvulars, labial-velars (East); emphatics (West)	Dispersed from Central Asia
Battlax	Sketch	Currently medium-sized, formerly major family	No /p/, vricativs; brief /kx/ (branch 3)	NW India & therearound
Caucasian'	Very sketch	Large but geographically limited family	Clicks (lost in some sub-branches), vricativs, tones, monosyllabic tendency	Caucasus & Levant
Genjax	Sketch	Single language, part of a large family (Mid-Sahel ~ upper Zambezi)	Labiopalatals, no /m/	around Serengeti
Klusterax	Sketch++	Small family	Loose phonotactics, non-contrastiv voicing	Southeast Asia
Mivizian	Sketch	Small family	Vricativs, small vowel system	Northern Drift Valley
Nilotic'	Sketch	Major family; possibly distantly related to Caucasian'	/tθ kx/; implosivs (West); voiceless nasals (Egyptian'); /j+ j-/, ejectivs & uvulars (South)	All the way along the Nile, eastern Sahara
Ouiqál	Beginnings	Single language (for now; not isolate!).	Voiceless nasals	Anatolia, originates from SW Central Asia (due to Altaic' expansion)
Persian'	Sketch++	Medium-sized family	Uvulars; tones, lhaterals, vricativs & multiple sonorant sets (modern branch)	From Persia eastwards
Telefax	Sketch	Small family	Implosivs, lhaterals, nasal vowels	North India? North Africa?
Univax	Sketch	Single	Allophonic uvulars, stable palatal stop, interdentals, noncontrastiv voicing, voiceless nasals, mid vowel harmony	North Africa
Uwjge??	Almost nearly decent	Possibly single	/ʀ/, fortis vs lenis stop system	Not a clue, still possibly conworld-internal conlang if I don't declare it a strictly personal/engelang with no conworld background
Zithromax	Very sketch	Major family	Unitary splosivs & prenasals	Let's say Western Sahara
