This map is based on my personal hypothesis, synthesized from various archaeological and genetic data. If you have any questions, feedback, or counterarguments, please feel free to leave a comment below.

Please note that the arrows do not all represent the same timeframe; there may be intervals of several thousand years between them. And this map does not depict language migration after the Iron Age.

Real language boundaries aren't that sharp, but I generalized them for the map.

Until the mid-1940s, dialects of Anatolian Turkish, which diverged from Oghuz Turkic, were spoken throughout most of central Anatolia and other major Anatolian cities. However, due to ethnic and linguistic assimilation policies implemented from the late 1940s to the early 1960s, the region shifted back to its pre-Turkic linguistic distribution. Today, Turkic languages are spoken only in parts of the arid climate zones of Anatolia.

This is an estimate and could change significantly if new holders or haplogroups are discovered.

Since this is a linguistic map, there are people among the English speakers in North America who actually have German ancestry.

In this world, after 500 years of Frisian rule, Burgundian has transformed into an Anglo-Frisian language heavily infused with French, Latin, and Greek loanwords.
