I do not intend to offend anyone and I apologise if anything is wrong (translation or etymology). I just used Google Translate. The language selection was limited to what GT offers (hence West Frisian and Luxembourgish are there). Sorry if any other language with more speakers is missing.
The etymology is from wiktionary.org but I had trouble with a few languages: for Lithuanian, I just could not find the word (*taikos* or *taika*). I even looked for an etymology dictionary online (2007, by Smoczynski) but the word was missing there too. For Kurdish I only found a similar word (with etymology Proto-Iranian -āzāta-), for Basque, I didn’t find the word, but most likely it’s… Basque. For Scottish Gaelic it’s From Old Irish *síde* < from *síd* (“fairy dwelling”).
Some languages aren’t in the legend as the map from mapchart.net didn’t offer a delimited area for the area they are used in / and I was too lazy to edit 🙂
Sorry for the low quality preview, I couldn’t manage to find the proper (old?) way to upload a picture. (It appears to have been removed?). Clicking on the preview will open the full resolution image (externally hosted).
My stressed ass thought this was some sort of ultimate invasion plan, then I zoomed in on the legend and it’s proto-Slavic origin lol
Good map
Unfortunately, Putin don’t want peace even if it means going against your own people pleas and attacking a neighboring country who you have extensive history with just because they want to be independent making their own decisions.
Sweden is just “We will have Fred” with a German accent
Funnily the Greek word “ειρήνη” that comes from the Homeric period word “εἰρήνη”, is probably coming from a pre-hellinic word (because of the ending -ηνη) and the Latin word pax comes from the Ancient Greek root παγ/πακ that means to connect, to join, to fasten.
