The Southwest

Was a region of Maruka which included the lands of Pueblo, Ar'Zonia, and Californya. The region was bounded by the Great Basin Desert on the north and Mexico to the south. The region was the site of the first new civilizations built after the flood, and has some of the oldest cultures of the new world.

History
In the days before the Great Flood, the southwest was ruled over by the Anglo dominated United States of Maruka, but had a very large Hispanic population. After the flood the languages of the southwest retained some Anglo elements but remained more closely related to ancient Spanish, making the languages of the region part of the Hispanic language family.
