'there's more to heaven and earth than fits your philosophy' (paraphrasing) hamlet to horacio his BFF.... in their world, most people didn't even have a basic awareness of all the nations and cultures that we now have in today's dissected and bisected and triple-checked-through world.... however, in fact, there are SO MANY cultures and languages in today's world, that NO-ONE can even begin to be COGNIZANT of them all... there are just too many to know about... this already gives an astounding set of potentials for possibilities, which are, in fact, played out daily on Earth -- which makes Earth an interesting place.......
take Finland, no-one even knows where the hell their language came from... the 'experts' know that all of europe's languages came from 'somewhere' -- so they call them 'indo-european' because presumably, they originated, like everyone else in europe, from india...... maybe.... but still, no-one knows where the Finnish and Basque languages of Europe are FROM....... studying their etymology, their words, reveals no connections, no relationships.......... nothing - a mystery
