So this is where the need for "Italian Sign Language" comes from - forces come in and conquer an area, and their neighbors are like "new language who's this?"

Muslim cartography puts south at the top. French cartography puts east at the top. British cartography puts north at the top. Everyone sees the world in a way where they are at the top and everyone else is below them.
