Anglish is the language of Megalos so that Americans can go to Yrth and be understood. I think that a more plausible Banestorm would have resulted in a Megalos formed from refugees from the Byzantine Empire, with areas like Caithness being settled by people from the British Isles. Of course, you would have had less Crusades against the Muslim nations since the Crusades were more of a Catholic thing than a Greek Orthodox thing. The Crusaders were as much an enemy of Byzantine as they were the enemy of Jews and Muslims.
