Babel is the multilingual environment for LaTeX (tailored for LuaTeX, pdfTeX and XeTeX), and sometimes Plain. Its aim is to provide a comprehensive localization framework for different languages, scripts and cultures based on the latest advances on international standards (Unicode, W3C, OpenType). It supports about 300 languages (with various levels of coverage) across about 45 scripts, including complex (like CJK, Indic) and RTL ones.
Besides the traditional .ldf files, there are many locales built on a modern core that utilizes descriptive .ini files, with tools providing precise control over hyphenation and line breaking, captions, date formats (across various calendars), spacing, transliteration, numbering and other locale-specific typographical rules.
