Uniqueness	Azak is agglutinative. But when I mean agglutinative, I mean really agglutinative, so agglutinative that after seeing it you'll get sick of seeing any other agglutinative language for a while :)) . Also, it has strange phonotactics. Syllable struct
Language Sources	None consciously. Only my recent discovery of agglutinative languages and ergativity at that time triggered the design of this language, but not languages by themselves.
Design Principles	I wanted to try my hand at an agglutinative language, and add ergativity and VSO word order to the mix. And although it was not clear in my head at that time, it is now sure that my main principle was to take those features and push them to their limits, making a language as purely agglutinative and ergative as possible.
