Countryvoice

== Countryvoice/Speakonia Mapping Dialect ==
=== What is it? ===
==== Countryvoice ====
Countryvoice is a type of mapping dialect usually used with modern/MOAP style dialects and adds audio when the countries talk. The audio typically sounds like a computerised voice with different accents relative to that country; for example, most African countries (for simplicity) use accents of the empires they used to belong to. Other countries either use their ow accents, or (again for simplicity) use an English accent. Countries with multiple languages (also for simplicity) use an English accent. Of course, the main language is dependent on the mapper's nationality. Smaller countries typically have higher-pitched voices, and bigger ones typically have lower-pitched voices. Whilst Countryvoice can be used with comedic mapping styles and serious/realistic mapping styles, it probably works better with the former.
Here is a link to a web-based program used for Countryvoice by LandLord Mapping:

==== Speakonia ====
Speakonia is the name given to Countryvoice by MrTaylordw Mapper, and could be a variant of Countryvoice as Countryvoice could be a variant of Speakonia. Speakonia is always using an American accent, however can be very hard to understand.
Speakonia is the program used by MrTaylordw, and here's the link:

==== Who created it? ====
As for who created it, that's more vague. It has been said that 99batran started it but the video "was deleted for unknown reasons in 2013" (- EthanKoenigsberg), but Moonsoonjr99 remembers "how the countries in some of Batran's videos would sing the song playing at the moment," and has gone on to class that as "Batran Syncing", rather than Countryvoice. However, the first confirmed video is by The Phoenix Mapper, published 03/11/2015 (11/03/2015 US date). The video can be found below, alongside other early uses by MrTaylordw Mapper, published 09/06/2015 (06/09/2015 US date), and by LandLord Mapping, published 16/08/2015 (08/16/2015 US date).
