name = ACCENT_REPUBICLANSIIK
description = "The dialect of central Ras'nrr. It was spoken by the Hadii dynasty and its subjects before being adopted as the official version of the People's Republic \
Siik'maas. This variation is taught in all Republican schools since the end of the first revolution and is considered as the most pure and correct form. PRA citizens are encouraged \
to learn and adopt it, as speaking another accent is frowned upon. It is notable for its unusually rigid grammatical construction as opposed to most other Adhomian dialects. \
Republican Siik'maas is the language of Hadiist loyalists, both in and outside of S'rand'marr."
