Beauridine

Beauridine (also referred to as "Near North") is a continent directly north of Rathnir. It is located between the Azian Ocean, Beauridinian Sea, Helmian Sea, Plagosi Passage, and Sea of Petals. Beauridine connects to Rathnir via Helmia and Syltör at the southern ends.

= Subcontinents = As a result of the dispersal of ethnic and racial groups throughout the continent over millennia, Beauridine is split into five subcontinents, roughly corresponding to demographics (or in some cases, landscape).

Coredinia
Coredinia is the second largest subcontinent in Beauridine, it is populated mostly by Oralian Elves, a race descending from Hyakki, who crossed through the continent on their path toward Eldham.

Coredinia has one major nation, known as the Raven’s Empire of Rypara (or Rypara). Rypara controls almost all of the land in Coredinia, as well as having territory outside of their homeland. The capital of Rypara is Ridinii, located on the northwestern coast of Coredinia, facing the neighboring subcontinent of Northeim.

Currently, the majority of Rathniri Oralian Elves live in Usarvark (Aezenfjord)

The most spoken language in Coredinia is Corden, and the largest religion is Synvetone.

Northeim
Northeim is an island archipelago northwest of Coredinia. It is the ancestral homeland of the Nortfolk, who still make up the majority of its current population.

During a cooling in Northern Beauridine, many Nortfolk fled to Daelyria, drastically lowering the population.

Currently, the largest nation in Northeim is the Waterkin Tribe, who control about 65% of the islands. They execute trade with Rypara and, in rare cases, Skyfall or Rathnir. Rypara also has a trading outpost, named Grimm’s Tower, on the largest island, where most trade is conducted.

The most spoken language in Northeim is Predmova, and the largest religion is the Church of Six Divines.

Wyrm
Wyrm is a subcontinent southeast of Coredinia, east of a large mountain range. Historically, Wyrm had been ruled by Trollkin, however, when the elves began to expand their empire, the chased the Trollkin underground, however they still make up a majority of Wyrm’s population.

A large percentage of Trollkin currently live in Vastallos, in the Sublime Kingdom of Vrolgar.

The most spoken language in Wyrm is Urmål, and the largest religion is Jotrtrú.

Skyfall
Skyfall is the southernmost continent in Beauridine, it directly borders Helmia, and is inhabited largely by Nebati peoples, with a minority of Faun settlers in the city of Pondhollow.

A few decades ago, as a result of a famine in Pondhollow, many Faun fled to Vastallos under the leadership of Kori Glynrel, a prominent Flosist priest and noble in Skyfall.

The most spoken language in Skyfall is Nebatii, and the largest religion is Flosism.

The Border
The Border is the largest subcontinent in Beauridine. The majority of the land in the subcontinent is dead, thus there are very few settlers in the region.

There is a single Ryparan city, which exists to mine a gem called Ridinite. Ridinite is a vital power source used in a variety of different applications in Rypara.

Due to the only major settlement being Ryparan, the most spoken language is Corden, and the largest religion is Synvetone.
