Plorthian Language[edit]
Overview[edit]
Plorthian is an ancient language originating from the Hrimfjord people, a Viking tribe that thrived in Antarctica during the Viking Age (circa 800-1100 AD). This isolated civilization developed unique linguistic and cultural attributes due to their secluded environment and necessity to survive in harsh conditions.
Origin and Historical Context[edit]
The Hrimfjord people settled Antarctica around the early 9th century AD. These seafaring Vikings ventured beyond their Nordic homelands, discovering the icy continent and establishing settlements. The inhospitable environment demanded ingenuity, fostering advancements in language, engineering, and governance.
Contact and Treaties[edit]
Despite isolation, the Hrimfjord people established contact with civilizations worldwide. They engaged in trade and formed peace treaties with tribes from South America, Africa, and Australia. These treaties ensured stable resources like metals, foods, and textiles, fostering prosperity and technological advancement.
The Plorthian Language[edit]
Plorthian diverged from Old Norse into a distinct language. Shaped by Antarctica’s environment and social factors, Plorthian featured:
- Complex Grammar: Multiple cases, tenses, and moods expressed nuances of harsh Antarctic life and similar to several other languages in the European continent due to that being their homeland from a century before.
- Simple Vocabulary: The Hrimfjord people believed in simplicity in the pursuit of an advanced civilization, as simple and strong communication strengthened the society as a whole.
- Hieroglyphic Script: A hieroglyphic script carved into ice and stone depicted natural and abstract symbols.
Assault on Kaldrheim[edit]
Around 1050 AD, the Hrimfjord people faced the Assault on Kaldrheim. Attacked due to a failed peace treaty, Kaldrheim’s fall marked their decline despite advanced technology and resistance.
Rediscovery in the 1900s[edit]
'Hrimfjord history remained lost until early 20th-century explorers found sculptures and hieroglyphic texts in the Antarctic ice. These artifacts, preserved by climate, provided the first evidence of Plorthian language and Hrimfjord civilization.
Archaeological Significance[edit]
Plorthian artifacts have become key to Antarctica archaeology, with scholars deciphering hieroglyphic script and uncovering Hrimfjord achievements. Study continues to reveal human adaptability in extreme environments.
Fun Fact[edit]
Dump crates were rumored to be found at the site, small wooden crates filled with frozen poop preserved in the ice. It is said that these historic crates were lost in a storm as they were being transported.
Conclusion[edit]
Plorthian and Hrimfjord history showcase human resilience and cultural advancement in extreme conditions. Rediscovery sparks interest in human history's mysteries hidden beneath Antarctic ice.
