 The Parvan Empire is named after its country of origin, Perevion, which is now to the north of Divion outside of the Parvan Empire. It used to be called Parve while it was under the Empire's control, but has had many identity changes due to persisting through many invasions and occupations.  The Parvan Empire is named after its country of origin, Perevion, which is now to the north of Divion outside of the Parvan Empire.

-==== Cultures & Languages ==== 
- 
-There are four main cultural super groups settled in Divion.  
- 
-=== Baulgi === 
- 
-The Baulgi are the primary culture of mundweren people who had settled Divion in recent times. Their populations are firmly cemented into Divion's societies, despite being the newest of the cultures present there. 
- 
-As a language, Baulgi tends to mix a lot of consonants to complex effect. It also makes use of thousands of suffixes and prefixes. One such suffix is "-en" or "n", which in most cases transforms a noun into a plural, like in "mundweren". 
- 
-=== Gilic === 
- 
-The Gilic culture includes the Parves that had built the Parvan Empire, but also includes many neighboring empires to the North. Technically, the geants are the sole originators of the Gilic culture, but it is an ancient and intertwined culture that is no longer associated with any one species. Hiniru miru, mundweren, geant, urzdwer and many others can be seen as Gilic.  
- 
-The Gilic language consists of a lot of simple syllables. The name "Gatalia" comes from Gilic. 
- 
-=== Gilic-Nimun === 
-  
-Named as a hybridisation of the "Gilic" and "Nimun" cultures, the Gilic-Nimun is essentially one of the many Nimun cultures to the South that split off and intermingled with the culture of the Gilic. It is associated primarily with the hiniru miru species, but only by a slim margin. As with Gilic, it has been adopted by many species over many centuries.  
- 
-The language used by the Gilic-Nimun is simply a northern dialect of Nimun.  
- 
-=== Urzd === 
- 
-The Urzd is the super-culture of the traditional urzdwer people. It consists of hundreds of smaller, local cultures in the form of clans. These clans once (and unofficially still do) own territories throughout Divion. These clans identify themselves as belonging to one of three heritages: 
- 
-  * Scazda 
-  * Urtaru 
-  * Kisci 
- 
-Each of those three often make use of their own languages, taking the names of the heritages themselves (Scazda, Urtaru, Kisci). Historically, the Urzd were not a united nation, and often clans warred against each other. The invasion of the Parvan Empire that occurred many centuries ago had united most if not all of these clans, and they now view each-other as being of the same cloth. 
- 
-The Three Urzd Tongues each make use of a lot of strange consonants that do not exist in other languages. As one example, "rt" is used to denote a short, rolled "R" sound produced by touching ones tongue to the back of their teeth and "purring" at the back of their throat.
