The 4h of Ebupell, 495 D.E.
The following table includes the languages of four of the five continents on Samoth. I must admit that I know almost nothing of the Sonsian languages. I have yet to meet anyone who is schooled in these languages and therefore have made the decision to eliminate those languages from this table rather than confuse you, Dear Reader, with what would surely be an unfinished and inconsistent list.

The Races of Man
Below the reader may find information regarding the four main "races" of humankind found within the Samothian World Continent. Good Reader, as you most certainly know, these four primary races are, for all intents and purposes, extinct. The proliferation of humankind across the world continent has facilitated the intermingling of the races over the past several centuries. There are few who can now claim pure blood from any of these four stocks. I present them here only for their historical and anthropological merit.
Arkaan: The Arkaan peoples originated in Verundhi and gradually spread west into the Buchlayne. They have bronze-coloured skin which ranges from a light copper to a deep, dark brown. Their hair is brown, brown-black, or black. Some have curly or wavy hair. They are now found intermixed with other races throughout the whole of Samoth, with a small handful of people with pure Arkaan blood found in Atkira.
Jimhi: The Jimhi came to Verundhi from the northeast. They have a gold-coloured complexion. Their eyes are gray, gray-green, or green. Hair colour is dark brown to dark black. They were originally nomads and worshippers of the Hol. A solitary people, there can still be found pockets of pure Jimhi blood. The inhabitants of the Eastern Provinces are descended from pure Jimhi stock.
Venke: A fair-skinned warrior race from the northwest. They have blonde or red hair. Eyes are light blue to dark blue, with gray and green rare. The Venke have no problems intermixing with other racial stocks; thus, there are essentially no peoples of pure Venkish blood to be found in Samoth. Most of the countries in the western part of the Buchlayne descend from Venkish stock.
Ollak: The Ollak people are a desert race with darker skin. Overtime, the people migrated to the warm seas of Buchlayne Minor. Ollak peoples of the seaside have warm olive skin with dark brown or sometimes blonde hair, and brown, green, or gray eyes. Desert Ollaks have dusty gray-brown skin and lighter brown hair. Eye-colour is the same as with the coastal Ollaks. Inhabitants of parts of Throecia and the Akkatomian City-States descend from pure Ollak stock.
