Vastallos

Vastallos (formerly Alteniquia Minor) is a subcontinent of Alteniquia. In unity, the Vastallosi decided for political reasons, to geographically separate the peninsula from mainland Alteniqua, and create a new continent for their peoples. This continent was named Vastallos at the meeting of Carvay, where the Treaty of Carvay was signed forming the Vastallosi Alliance of Western Rathnir, an alliance dedicated to preserving the sovereignty of the nations of the region. Engineers from the continent have fully separated it from Alteniqua through large channels and walls. The name Vastallos descends from a colloquial name the people gave their land before the imperialist non-native mapmakers began labelling their land by the exonym "Alteniqua Minor".

States
The subcontinent has been home to many small city-states, however, the Serene Republic of Carvay has consolidated control over the entire subcontinent.

Geography
The geography of Vastallos is affected by the wet easterly winds of the Mare Caprechosa which are halted by the great jungle before reaching the Alteniquian deserts. Consequently, the biomes found on Vastallos are lush forests, marshy wetlands, dense jungle and glacial mountain regions.
