What language for Ventria?

Ventria (Wiki and map) is a small land-locked state that I recently "cut out" of Estiansian territory and turned to a separate state.

In Tarott (Wiki and map - bad mapping quality due to old vector imports), Kalm, there is a large Ventrian community and also a "Ventrian quarter" (Ventrisches Viertel) that has its own S-Bahn (suburban rail) station. Tarott was designed before OGF started and I came up with some cultures surrounding Kalm. And now I found a place for the Ventrians.

But: I haven't any names yet for cities and other geographical features - and I didn't decide what official language Ventria has.

So my question is now: What language for Ventria? What is your opinion?

It is surrounded by many Ulethan ("European") languages, Kalmish (German), Estiensian (Hungarian), Garlish (Romanian) a bit further away, Franquese and Vinnish in Vinnmark, Welsich (a bit like Dutch?) - there are many more, as you know can find out using the map.

I'm open for any language, but probably a Ulethan ("European") one would be great. Of course, a fantasy language "between" other European languages could also be nice. Or Ventria could have an official language that is spoken in Europe but not the "main official" language of any country.

I'm looking forward to your suggestions.

Happy mapping!
