Alteniquia

Alteniquia is the large central continent of Rathnir. It is counted to be part of the political Eastern Hemisphere.

The continent is regionally split into Alteniquia Proper to the north and Australiquia to the south.

Alteniquia Proper
Alteniquia Proper is a semi-arid region predominantly consisting of deserts and savannah. It features the highest natural peak of Rathnir atop the Apasiril Mountains as well as the geographic center of Rathnir at the coordinates 0,0.

Settlements are predominantly associated with one of the global powers, Yimmu-Audal, as the cities of Dal-Wasusud, Pryiad and Ederai Elnam have sworn allegiance to Emperor Harbardr.

Australiquia/Southern Alteniquia
The southern area of Alteniquia is a vast area of forest, plains and swamp. It differs from the rest of Alteniquia due to its cooler and more temperate biomes. It is home to some city-states as well as some colonies of the Valdreach Imperial Republic.

Vastallos
The peninsula formerly known as Alteniquia Minor split from Alteniquia Proper by digging deep channels between the two continents and announced the reforming of the territory under a new name. The people, referred to as the Vastallosi, formed a continental alliance in response to the encroaching powers of Escharien, Yimmu-Audal and Valdreach.
