Welcome to Eorzea and the RPC! Unlike other MMOs where lore is readily available to all, FF's lore is scattered, often-times unreliably, across many npcs over the course of the story quests, in side quests, item text, etc. So it makes it all very difficult to chronicle. So here's some basic world-building stuff I've thrown together to help new folks out. Hope it helps! ^^ Lemme know if you have any more specific questions!

It does not! Anyone is free to interact with everyone on their chosen server! ^^ Each race does have its own language in the lore though, but now that the city-states of Eorzea have been united and opened trade among each other in the last hundred years, the "Common" language is now spoken by most everyone, including most of the beast tribes.
