Okay so this is the best picture I could get of the map on my wall so ignore the other paintings/mirror.
I won’t go into too much detail in this post, but the world is called Cliyrilia with seven kingdoms/nations in the time we currently are in during the story; Sipara, Cavucia, Cabia, Cyolt, Zuthis, Tedan, and Soria.Â
Cavucia:
Cavucia is a very nordic place and about most of the country is either taiga or tundra. It is home to the fiercest warriors in the world and they are very territorial. The capital is Khievark, with the most populas cities being Pella’s Wish and Fallholt. Currently, their border lies from just below the Sacred Grove to the Frostfell bay. Though they own the land, the tundra beyond the Menyz Peaks are uninhabited by Cavucians, only native nomadic tribes wonder the Sanok Tundra. Cavucia’s bloodthirsty king, Hallstein Dagsson, has been leading a war against the elves in the Sacred Grove for over 20 years, over territory issues. They have been at a standstill for over a decade.
Sipara:
Just south of Cavucia lies the quiet country of Sipara. It’s a very hilly place with many rivers running through it and little forests dotting the countryside. It’s capital lies in the heart of the country at Loria. The other major cities are the port town of Mathias and the city of Terria on the island just off the coast. The royal family has been the Amors ever since Lysander Amor conquered the land long ago. Currently, the ruling monarchs are Alissia and Dante Amor. Sipara mostly relies off trading and agriculture and is very diplomatic. They have ever only been in two wars, but the army has been conscripting more lately with Cavucia’s threats of war.Â
Cabia:
The island nation of Cabia is the smallest of the seven kingdoms. It’s capital, Niska, lies on the largest of the islands. Their political situation is a very chaotic one. There is a council who elects a president to lead, but they can never keep one for long. Assassinations are a common way for political members to go. Cabians are used to this chaos however, and go on about their lives during this political turmoil. That being said, most of the citizens who make a living off the sea are privateers (I use that term very loosely, they’re more like pirates). The few who do make an honest living are typically merchants or artisans. Cabia has the largest and best navy in the world, and tends to use it often when a president survives long enough to declare war on a different country.
Zuthis:
Currently the largest nation, Zuthis is easily the most religious kingdom. The climates vary greatly there. To the east of the Solarian Mountians, The country is very green and lively. To the west however, lies the barren desert, home to a single major city. The capital lies to the east of the mountains at Plesia. Zuthis is a theocracy, with the highest ranking priestess ruling as Divine. The current Divine is Dinera VIII.Their politics are mildly stable, but western Zuthis grows furious at the eastern side for not sending support during a major drought. The eastern side also questions the other’s citizens of their devotion to Iros, their chief god. Citizens claim the two sides are too different for them to be united, and call for a secession.Â
Cyolt:
Cyolt is the coldest and most desolate kingdom. To the north lies Mount Mizehs, the largest volcano in the world. The volcano had lain dormant for centuries until recently, when it erupted and wiped out the city of Sizor, now known as the Shadows. The only city that survived was Ashborne due to it’s bulwark built long ago to prevent the city from being buried in ash. The entire northern half of Cyolt is known as the Ashen Plains now. The southern half of the country has been spared from the ash and is the most populated. The capital, Phanta, lies here. The current moarchs are Serena and Cecilia Ourniw. Cyolt has avoided wars many times and has many allies among the larger and more powerful countries.
Tedan:
Tedan was once a colony of Soria but gain independence recently. Tedan is mostly rainforests and swamps. Their capital is Eshirie to the north. Tedan lacks a organized government and is in the process of creating one, but to keep order, they have a council that makes and enforces laws. Most of the country is unexplored due to the thick rainforests and large marshes. The population is very small and most of the citizens live to the north near the capital. They make a living by trading the natural resources found in the forests.
Soria:
And lastly the oldest country of Soria. It is the most industrialized (They barely have a decent steam engine but technically they ARE the most industrialized). Soria is has a very temperate climate. It’s capital is Ebonworth and Soria has a sort of oligarchy. The head from each of the four noble houses run the country together. Currently the leaders are Aleksander Alan Flemming, Faytherli Henrietta Underdow, Emerson Martin Trourni, and Miriam Fidelia Rothcolt. The Flemming are renowned inventors and are allied with the banker family, Trourni. The Underdows control production alongside the Rothcolts who supervise trade. The noble houses usually agree on matters but the head of the Underdows is very unstable and Aleksander fears an assassination plot from them.

That took a lot longer than I thought it would. If you have any questions or just want to know more about any of the countries just send an ask and I’ll get to it as soon as possible.
I’ll probably post more later
