Geography (Reania Supplement)

Reania has a long and terrible history ranging from wars against Giants to massive hunts against Dragons. Throughout the millennia nations have risen and fallen, there are few nations that have not fallen and remained in power throughout their history. The different continents all have their own seasons, some are similar in a few ways but each one has at least one unique weather system to it. All of them are unique in how they are run and what sort of people live there.

Gailen

Kaiden Wilds

The Kaiden Wilds are a largely unexplored region of the world due to the deadly cold that is present all year round and the many dangerous people and monsters that live here. There are even legends of Snow Elves in this region.

Aetrias

Aetrias was once the seat of an ancient empire long since forgotten by mere mortals, this empire had perfected the fusion of magic and science called Magitech. It was this perfect fusion and their weapons advancements that became its downfall. Following the country's destruction mages raised massive islands into the skies to protect people, and these floating islands have remained in the sky ever since. Aetrius is a democracy that is led by a council of 13 elected members.

Rakovia

This cold country has a habit of producing very tough people in its forests and mountains. Rakovia is a very magic phobic country that up until very recently actively hunted magic users. However, following a war magic users gained more rights and even an army was established made entirely of spell casters granting Rakovia one of the strongest militaries in the world. Rakovia is a Monarchy led by the royal family.

Kimeta

The nation is Kimeta is entirely made up of a massive desert. These hot sands have given rise to numerous people who are often very resistant to such temperatures. Many nomadic tribes journey through this desert but more people live in the capital of Ugen the 4th largest city in the known world. Kimeta is ruled by the Pharoah, this title is passed on from father to son and has been for 1,000 years.

Thule

Thule is a strange country to many due to its absolute faith in magic. Technology is very limited due to the belief that it could never do what magic is capable of. Those who cannot use magic are seen as a second class of citizens and treated less than others, meanwhile, those who find magic easily coming to them are quickly taken in by the government to train their skills. Thule is a Magocracy run by a council of 9 mages each representing one of the schools of magic and one who represents Wild Magic.

Anzhong

Anzhong is the country most, unlike all the others. For 3,000 years the nation had cut themselves off from the rest of the world causing massive differences in their cultures. Anzhong also is rather unique in the mana it gives off gifting special properties to their magic and items. Anzhong is protected by and worships Dragons who have been changed by the mana of the country.

Aurelian Archipelago

The Aurelian Archipelago is not an official nation but it is an extremely powerful region. The Archipelago is known as the seat of the Pirate King, most pirates in the world come here for respite and refuge. Once it was a dangerous place to live in due to it being the chosen stomping grounds of Titans, but that changed when the first Pirate King came and made it safe for his people.

Leanor

Leanor is a medium sized country that is home to many mountains and massive forests, it is known as the nation of wine because of the fine grapes that are grown and turned into wine. It also possesses a great boon of many natural resources that have allowed technology to progress slightly ahead of the rest of the world. The mysterious leaders of this country are unwilling to share too many of their secrets with others however and while not officially at war Leanor has a complicated relationship with all other countries.

Zahara

Zahara is a very small country hidden in the Spine of the World, North of Okenshire. Zahara often does not do any trade with anyone and is considered an enemy by most, the reason for this is because Zahara does not exile or execute people for performing necromancy and actually encourages its use for good. However, a group of Necromancers from Zahara has stained their normally peaceful reputation causing many to fear them.
