Name:
Long Form: The Associated States of Lunis
Short Form: Lunis
Government: Perviously govenrment was consisted of only Terra Mages, but after the ban of Terra magic, the Government reverted from a Magocratic Republic to a Autocratic Republic.
Population: less than 600,000
Race: Lunari are lithe folk, that usually show promise with magic, it seems to be bred into their veins. They stand a bit taller than average, usually around 6’2”, and have angular features. They have slightly pointed ears, and fair complexions. You will very seldomly see a heavyset Lunari, for as a race, they are very slim built. The only other destinction between Lunari and Nylians is that Lunari, in rare cases, have had gold, silver, and even steel blue hair, and violet, gold, silver, or black eyes.
Land Area/Type: Lunis is mostly plains and rolling hills, but Lake Luna makes up a large area in the northwest and the Enchanted Forest takes up much of the southeast. The Hollow Crags extend out of Ferai to end in Lunis as well.
Society: Composed of three classes, an noble class and governmental figures, a middle merchant class, and a lower commoner class.
Regions: Lunis is devided into seven states that each send one representative to the council in the capitol city of Fayre, which lies in the largest of the states.
States: Fayre (Capital), Dargent, Callendar, Kenoblious, Nevyel, Helilal, Teyr.
Name:
Long Form: The Enlightened Kingdom of Nylam
Short Form: Nyliam
Government: Monarchy
Population: Nearly 1,200,000
Race: Nylians are normal humans for all intents and purposes, with darker skin in the southern desert and lighter skin in the north and on the plains.
Land Area/Type: Nyliam is covered in forest, plain, and hills. The Dark Wood is in the east, and borders Lake Asheri, the Sacred Grove and the Daggerwood are in the north, and the Taren Forest is in the northwest. The Spine of Nyliam mountains run down the majority of the west coast. A large desert, the Karakai, also makes up a portion of the southwest, and a small desert island is off of the coast of the desert. A pair of smaller lakes make natural rivers to protect Nyliam, and they are called the Sword Lake (bigger in the east)and the Shield Lake (Smaller in the west). They combine to make the River Niven five miles south of Nyliam.
Society: Royalty, a middle class of traders and wealthy tradesmen, and commoners.
Major Provinces: Nyliam, Pontifar, Karakai, Miltus, Filiam, Hillslay, Farlarn
Name: Balanum Protectorate
Population: Near 250,000
Government: An elected Consul, with a Sorcerous advisor. In the past this advisor was a Terra Mage, now he is a Dedicated.
Race: Balans are an industrious race, always working and inventing new things. This would expalin why they are the most technologically advanced nation on Asheri. Balans tend to be slightly shorter than Nylians, averaging around 5’7”, they are usually well built and fortuitous. They usually have round faces and broad noses. They are almost never skinny and as such some of them hold contempt for Lunari, despite the good relations between their countries, however, they are almost never obese either, because of their industrious lifestyles.
Land Area/Type: Balanum is surrounded by the Balanum Shield Range. A high range of mountains that servs to cut off the country from the rest of the world. A large plain rests between the mountains, and has coasts on both the ocean and Lake Asheri.
Society: Upper class of wealthy persons and government representatives, an upper middle class of civil servants, priests, and soldiers, a middle class of skilled tradesmen and such, and a commoner class
Name:
Long Form: The Domain of the Farai People
Short Form: Farai
Government Type: No overall government. City-States each have individual governments, but are joined together by “Ferain Compact”, promising mutual aid in event of natural disaster or invasion by another power.
Population: slightly over 700,000
Race: Ferai tend to be of the same height as Nylians, but from living life in the wildest parts of Asheri, their skin is tougher and they are faster runners then Nylians. Ferai are slightly less intelligent than Nylians, but noticibly less than Lunari or Balans. Because of their “wild” existance however, Ferai tend to have tight, wiry muscles,and even the strongest Ferai looks like an average man. They tend to have dark eyes and hair, and rely more on their own physical strength than the power of magic or the mind. Some Ferai that do not live in the major cities, (most don’t) have many tatoos to symbolize their tribal and clan affiliation.
Land Area/Type: Ferai is bordered on the east by the Hollow Crags, a mountain range filled with caves and tunnels. The Soulwood Forest is in the northwest, near Lake Asheri, which the west border of the country falls on.
Society: Relative to each city-state, however most City-States have standard upper/middle/lower pattern. Also because most Ferai don’t live in cities, a tribal society has grown to exist on the plains, in the mountains, and in the forests.
