Planetary characteristics

1 HM year = 381.3668618 Earth days = 357.0806527870906 HM days = 1.04410737342 Earth years

1 HM day = 25.6323176 hours

86400

357 days = 51 7-day weeks

leap day every 12.3988275678 years

months: 30 30 30 29 30 30 30 29 30 30 30 29(30)

every 12 except: when the year is divisible by 372

perfect for clofabians

so the years 270, 520, 790, X40, 10E0, 1360, 1610, 1880, ... are not leap years

actually if the year is divisible by 130944=352*372 it's a leap year

Loanwords tend to come from:

  • Science, law and administration: Old Netagin
  • Music: Koine Netagin (esp. in music directions)

Language families of Clotricin

Programming languages

  • Verbose language with Clofabosin keywords (Java + Python hybrid)

"if X": X sartan (sartan = "case, condition")

"for i in range(1,10)": (1,10) apidan gaptan i ibat (gloss: "(1,10) range member i DISTRIBUTIVE")

"while X": X otetan (otetan = "period of time")

  • Functional language
  • C analogue

Musical cultures

Wiebosphere

Early theory: enharmonic genera, tetrachordal scales repeating at the 3/2

Later theory: Schulterian temperaments

Naquosphere

Gamelan-like orchestras with metallophones/marimbas, drums, gongs. Use of voice or other harmonic timbres is limited.

Tuning: quasi-10edo or quasi-15edo with a stretched octave

"Xenrhythms": Math rock-like rhythms, among them self-similar rhythms; Xaetjeon people help import these rhythms into Talmic music

Religions, mysticism and philosophy

  • Talmic paganism
    • Tíogall an Saichte (singular) for 'the gods' - that's like the opposite of Elohim
  • Wiebian paganism
  • Naquian paganism
  • Clofabian paganism
  • A more universalistic religion (in the same general cluster as Christianity or Mahayana Buddhism)
    • Perhaps the former multiple gods coalesce into one God - instead of elimination of other gods in favor of one of them
    • A person goes to a (potentially infinite?) chain of purgatories after they die - one's karma increases or reduces time served in purgatories
    • Heaven exists, "hell" is when a soul spends indefinite time in purgatories
    • People drawing up graphs/trees of afterlives lol
      • This turns into various board games
    • Question: "Assume that there is a God whom we trust and want to get messages from. When can you trust someone who claims to be God?"
      • This leads to discussions of computer security protocols before computers were invented
      • "God's Public Key" = either a satirical TV show episode, a short story or a song
