List of Geographic Regions

This is a list of major geographic regions of our setting. These divisions are based on climate and don't necessarily have much to do with which nations are in charge.

The Middle Seas
This region was un-explorable until quite recently. Standard navigation tools simply do not work and the stars above have a habit of changing at random. Advanced navigation tools work some of the time, but not consistently. The Tarowak people are capable of navigating from their home island to surrounding islands without much trouble, their assistance in navigating these waters is therefore incredibly useful.

North Polar Region
Although it's technically possible to simply walk form the Khanate to the Mandate, nobody would've considered trying this until the two hemispheres were connected by The Sunrise Fleet. The region is far and away the coldest in the world, even colder than one would expect given its location. The region is also speckled with dangerous magical ruins. All who have attempted the land journey from the Khanate to the Mandate have disappeared and are presumed dead.

South Polar Region
The southern ice sheet is much less cold than its northern counterpart. There are a handful of whaling outposts scattered around this area, and occasionally some foolish soul will attempt an exploration of the area. It has been hypothesized that dragons breed under the southern ice sheet, but so far nothing of interest has been discovered.

The West (AKA the New World)
This region contains a majority of the world's nations, although these nations are much less technologically advanced than the nations of the East. The West also contains The Island, a relatively large landmass that is ostensibly easy to access but from which no one has ever returned.

The East (AKA the Old World)
The East contains a minority of the world's nations, but nations with more power and land than any in the West.
