    Hittite sounds mysterious, cool and elitist, plus is not as known as the rest of the ancient languages. And according to linguists, it actually doesn't descend from IE, but is more akin to IE's sister. Tocharian could be interesting too, as well as Sumerian.

    (What I mean by IE's sister is the fact that there seems to have be, if I understood correctly, Proto-Indo-Hittite, which then diverged in Proto-Indo-European and Hittite.)

    There's that saying here "Speak Serbian so the whole world understands you."

    But then again, John Travolta tried that in Killing Season, and not even Serbs could understand him.

    German of course.
    When injustice is great enough, justice will lend me the strength needed to correct it. None may stand against it. It will shatter every barrier, sunder any shield and break every defense. There's nothing on the world that can stay the hand of justice when it's brought against them. It may unmake armies. It may sunder the thrones of gods. Know that for all who betray justice, I am their fate.
    And fate carries an executioner's axe.

    After some generations there would be many new languages based in the one chosen.
