Xánténian (Xánténian : Ћánтenьяn) was the official language of Xánténia, the Socialist workers' state located in South East Asia. It takes its name from the Xántan dynasty which ruled Sukhonah from 903-1683 CE. In 1684, King Xántan XVII, after a number of wars, extended the lands of his nation, creating an Empire, which was named after his dynasty. In addition to this, the native language of Sukhonah, Xánténian, was also adopted by the conquered peoples.
