This act was aimed to build on the first linguistic reform act by outlawwing several minority languages and the complete removal of accent marks and apostrophes from Egercian. This act was targetted to the remaining Chevspendic traditionalists, who Svoboda viewed as a barbaric shame on Sahrland. The Bridge of blood incident caused the act to be scaled down by not applying restrictions to other languages than Egercian.

		+	Although it was not made a law, Svoboda heavily criticized the practice of awarding title names as nearly no other country on the planet had a similar practice. His insistance on their removal caused the opposite effect, and many who did not have title names acquired them. This is attributed to be the biggest factor for the sudden increase in -ako, -kæ, -dua, and many more title names that were previously in declining popularity.
