“A boy quickly ran beside and around it, and…oops!” Those were the words of news reporter Mark Saxon on March 16, 299 BCE. He was reporting about a 9-year-old kid running around Main Street when he fell down. This was within the tribal kingdom of the Words. Back then, words did not exist. Only sign language and written language did, as Mark Saxon used sign language while reporting. But the people decided to make up spoken words due to the many parts of speech they saw there.
In 146 BCE, the Confederation of Grammar was established. It consisted of 8 kingdoms - the Grand Duchy of the Nouns, the Kingdom of Verbs, the Archduchy of Adjectives, the Pronoun Duchy, the Principality of Adverbs, the Kingdom of Conjunctions, the Prepositional Kingdom, and the Empire of Interjections. The Grand Duke of Nouns held the title of Subject, while the King of Verbs held the title of Object. Each had their own languages. For example, the Nouns could only say names.
However, starting with the Subjects, rebellions across the Confederation caused it to collapse. By 987 CE, the Confederation had ceased to exist. From then, all the way until 1899, based on your ethnicity, you could only say one part of speech.
However, in 1879, the words started forgiving each other, and so they taught each other how to speak different parts of speech. For example, the Nouns could finally say actions, the Verbs could finally say names, and much more. In 1899, the Federation of Words was established, with its capital being Grammar Town, a city in the center of the nation not belonging to any state.
Since then, complete sentences have existed. However, in recent times, in opposition to traditional language, angry Contractionists (followers of Verbal philosopher Karl Johnson) rebelled by using contractions, which shorten words. However, the capital of Grammar Town, today, is a nice city.
