Talk:Western languages/Expansion

Now that I know what the time intervals are, I can see more what needs to change. For one thing, Gezoro needs to be in the Rathedan by -2500 or so, as they are having fights with the Ndak by -2400. At this same time, the Westerners' rule of Xsalad is also underway, so that branch too needs to be much bigger by the third map, extending nearly down to the big bay on the central Xsali coast. It need not remain connected to the urheimat, and probably wasn't; it was a splinter group that ended up down there. Then, by -1500, all western langs should already be gone from the Xsali sphere except for a good-sized island in the Tjakori valley. Both the Gz/Tj and the Xsali branches were the result of fast-moving migrations, not gradual expansions, same as the rest of the Diaspora. Hmm... let me see if I can do a rough revision of the map to show better what I mean. Radius 01:41, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

I think I do have an idea already... I've changed the images to match them with the discussion - does it look good now? -- Cedh 10:58, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Yes! Looks perfect to me. Radius 14:00, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
