Description This paper was focused on complex evolutionary relations between language and religion on one side and environmental and social factors on the other side. Small introductory dataset of this study was based on textual samples of Inner Asian royal titles, edicts, and diplomatic as well as religious expressions. Usual standard is that they are subject of micro-specialized philology. But I was able to demonstrate that they require broader approach focused on their multi-context connectivity. It is because these texts reflect mutual relations of rulers with population of various ethnic and cultural background. Ethnic and international setting is then always influenced by environmental factors. Especially the climate shifts and geographic conditions are influencing changing size of neighboring populations with their political connections. As the size of population represents some attraction force, it is always influencing migration patterns and cultural development. In main interpretative section I have 1) introduced my own contribution and innovative concept of linguo-religious complexes and 2) I have provided textual samples with a table of their interconnected multi-contexts.
