Abjad of the Azure Imperium

The abjad of the Azure Imperium was a writing system used in the Azure Imperium, an interstellar civilization centered on the planet Axum and established before the formation of the Galactic Republic.Coruscant and the Core Worlds The abjad used characters that were derived from the logographic writing system of Rakata, the language spoken by the Rakata species of the Infinite Empire,The Unknown Regions which had at one point enslaved the inhabitants of the Azure Imperium. The latter faction's script shared this re-use of Rakata symbols with various other, very different writing systems—such as the ancient Durese syllabary and the Pre-Corellian and Aurebesh alphabets—which frequently adopted the glyphs with no apparent connection to the original logographic nature of the Rakatan script. The abjad of the Azure Imperium's Rakatan origins were eventually noted by the xenolinguist Doctor Milanda Vorgan in her 38 ABY publication "The Written Word: A Brief Introduction to the Writing Systems of Galactic Basic."
==Behind the scenes==
The abjad of the Azure Imperium was introduced in the article "The Written Word," which was authored by John Hazlett and published on StarWars.com Hyperspace on March 5, 2010. In the real world, the term "abjad" denotes a writing system in which characters represent primarily consonants and few or no vowels.
