World Esperanto Congress in a series which started in 1905 [see the centenary report] and has taken place each year, interrupted only by the two world wars.
Esperanto, as we know, is a constructed planned language, which aims to ease communication between people with different languages everywhere in the world.
For a modern world, which is faced with more important global challenges and disagreements, it is extraordinarily important that different people, religions and cultures should preserve their identities and the same time discover means of communicating with each other.

 cars - Esperanto
Esperanto is not an official language of any country, although there were plans at the beginning of the 20th century to establish Neutral Moresnet as the world's first Esperanto state, and the shortlived artificial island micronation of Rose Island used Esperanto as its official language in 1968.
Esperanto is primarily agglutinative (Wells 1989 calculates an index of agglutinativity of 0.9999, higher than any non-constructed language), with all grammatical function suffixes appearing at the ends of words, and a mix of prefixes and suffixes with lexical meanings.
Esperanto is written using a modified version of the Latin alphabet, with six accented letters: ĉ, ĝ, ĥ, ĵ, ŝ (c, g, h, j, and s with circumflex), and ŭ (u with breve).

 An Esperanto Overview
Esperanto was effectively banned in the Soviet Union until 1956, discouraged until 1979, and kept under strict governmental control until the late 1980s.
Most Central European governments before World War II discouraged the learning or use of Esperanto, considering that it was not necessary for the polyglot ruling elites and that it was not desirable as a means of international communication for the economic and political underclass.
Esperanto organizations were banned in Germany in the mid-1930s, and Esperanto speakers in the territories occupied during World War II were either discouraged (generally in the occupied West) or exterminated (more common in the occupied East).
