Ievurlazkant is the national language of Ivorila and Sargus, and is widely spoken in the PEEL region, particularly in the Far East. It is the most widely spoken native language in the northern hemisphere.

Distinct from languages developed in the South and West, Ievurlazkant speakers have historically had little contact with speakers of Urallian descent, which led to the rise of a largely unique regional language. Interestingly, this isolated environment did not lead to a stagnation of language prevalent in several other ancient societies. Religious travel spread by St Caulisburg missionaries further cultivated Ievurlazkant into the several varieties known today.

In modern times, Ievurlazkant has been adapted by the DROOP as one of the organization's official languages, and is commonly spoken in all parts of the Far East.

Regulation of the language has been patchy, at best. There are five officially registered variations of the language, and the regional adoption of Ievurlazkant by New Europe has led to a large variety of dialects yet to be recognized or even confirmed as Ievurlazkant.
