Livagia, I hasten to add, exists in Piat's world, which also contains
the Triune Monarchy (Scythia-Pannonia-Transbalkania) of which Piatland
is sometimes a part. The T.M. dissolved after World War I.
A fortiori, Tsxunrcaa also coexists with Piat.
The official language of the Republic (formerly the People's Republic)
of Piatland is still Court-Gothic (the "court" in question being
the Triune Monarchy's), but there is an effort underway to change
the official language to Piat. The objection is the expense of
translating all the official documents.

My view is that Livagia, Kemr, and Piat are co-necessary (all
exist in the same world), but I am willing to be contradicted.
