Sylvatir

Sylvatir is the continent spared by The Maker in 0 AC. Iquai is a country that formed on the mainland, nestled between mountains on the west and The Valley on the east. The three countries in Sylvatir -- Iquai, Dallos, and Trillia -- are particularly isolationist, and so it is highly uncommon for citizenry within one country to know of events occuring in the others.

History of Sylvatir
For ages, Sylvatir existed in the world in relative competetive harmory with its neighbour, Thirshalon. However, the Maker's War of 73 BC - 0 AC irreparably damaged relations between the two continents to the point where The Maker intervened, destroying Thirshalon entirely. From that moment forward, Sylvatir became the sole continent on the face of the planet.

Sylvatir would later split into three countries. The continent first split in half, creating the countries of Dallos and Trillia in 241 AC. Trillia would later split again in 412 AC when the province of Iquai separated into its own soverign state. Tensions between the countries were high, but the combination of mountain ranges separating the nations physically as well as a strong recollection of the last major war involving Sylvatir discouraged any legitimate aggressive action from being taken. The three countries eventually adhered to strict isolationism from each other.

Ethnicities of Sylvatir
Sylvatir is home to a variety of races: humans, dwarves, elves, and orcs. However, not all of these races are treated equally, and respect and equal opportunities for members of a particular race may change from region to region or country to country.

Climate in Sylvatir
Sylvatir contains an array of climactic regions despite its relatively small size. The continent features mountains, deserts, forests, taiga, swampland, grasslands, plains, beaches, and tropical biomes. However, not every country on Sylvatir possesses each biome.

Iquai
Iquai contains a variety of biomes across its geographic landscape. The east of Iquai features a blazing desert beyond an impassible mountain range. The west is home to a massive forest that extends from the northern to the southern shore. The grasslands of the central plains host low laying grasses and very little tall vegetation, allowing for occasional strong windstorms blowing off the mountains. The southern peninsula is often rainy, as its proximity to the sea produces a wealth of precipitation year-round.
