I could maybe also mention the different german or gaelic languages( I was going to say I'm not experienced enough to talk about those, but I'm not experienced to be saying anything at all so what the hell), they are about as different as dialects in a bigger country, such as the indigenous languages of South America, but, thanks to Europe's division of nations on a scale we brasilians divide states, they're considered different, national languages. This is a very edge of my seat way of saying that dialects are accents with a navy and languages are dialects with an army, and their differences, specifically nowadays with globalization, is dispersed mostly evenly. Could this be the case with religion? Assuming of course the whole thing isn't blatantly wrong.
