Settlement of Gonfaloy
Around 1280 after Salmakhamer, Medibgö sent several groups of colonists to the Rhauve River Valley to gain control over this rich agricultural land and reduce population in the skynesses. At this time, the power of the Yophenthean Successor States in Pytharnia had waned and could not offer the Medibgóëse organized resistance.
Gonfalese Language
The Gonfalese language is thus about fifteen centuries old and younger than the neighboring human languages of Asbardian, Dúrandworese, and Pytharnian. Late Yophenthean was spoken in the lands where Gonfalese prevailed and thus Gonfalese has many borrowings from the Ambrasian Language in contrast to Medibgóëse that has fewer which are mostly limited to law and religion. Gonfalese derived from early Middle Medibgösk. Gonfalese itself is divided into two periods, early Gonfalese (1300 to 1900) and Modern Gonfalese (1900 to present day). Gonfalese borrows nearly half its modern lexicon (vocabulary) from the now extinct Ambrasian Language. Numerous idioms and borrowed language structures also exist in Gonfalese.
