The Slavic languages deriving from the early Slavic peoples of Eastern Europe.
<em>The Slavic languages</em> are the Indo-European languages spoken by the Slavic peoples of Eastern Europe. They are spoken by 315 million people in the world. Their history stretches over 3000 years, the first 2000 being the period when the language remained unified without dialectal differences. By around 1000 AD there was a break up of the Slavic language into three main branches : East Slavic, West Slavic and South Slavic.
Each branch of the Slavic languages originally developed from Proto-Slavic, the ancestral parent language of the group spoken during Early Middle Ages, which itself developed from the Proto-Baltic language.
Some examples of the Slavic languages are: Polish, Russian, Czech, Serbian, Macedonian, Slovak, Slovene and Croatian.
Unlike the States of the Union or a <u>Commonwealth (Union of several sovereign states)</u>, the US territories are considered as sub-national administrative divisions, this means that these territories are without sovereignty and thus they lack representation in Congress and are administered directly by the federal government.
These territories can be classified as incorporated or unincorporated as well as if they have an organized government or not.
It's important to make a note here since the US has 16 territories, <u>5 of which are inhabited and have a government (Guam, American Samoa, US Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, and Puerto Rico)</u> and <u>11 which are islands with no population or government.</u>
