Mainland
From World of Gothic
The mainland is the land that the king Rhobar II conquered before the ork wars. It is composed from 3 main areas:
Myrtana
The Middle Kingdom or "The old empire" was once the first royal kingdom before the king Rhobar II conquered all the kingdoms sorrounding the sea of Myrtana
The fertile planes, with their large forests and fields, are sorrounded in the north by the mountains and the icy fields of Nordmar. In the south it borders the desertic land of Varant, the home of the hashishin.
The capital, that is the biggest town in the mainland too, is situated in the east coast of the empire. It is sorrounded by many cities, towns and smaller farms that provide the provisions for the town and the empire.
Varant
Hot and dry, like most deserts, and the ones in the south of Myrtana arenĀ“t the exception. But there is life everywhere, in its biggest part, human: the tribe of the hashishin are there, the same that the small groups of nomads that challenge the hostile climate for havin there life there.
In the west, the desert gets to the mountains, in the north, to the lands and the meadows of the old empire.In the south, the waves of the sea of myrtana make a natural barrier. The capital of the inhabitants of the desert in situated in this coast.
Nordmar
Nordmar is a mountanious region in the north covered of ice and snow, where the orcs are having their most difficult time: they have esclaved some humans and they have obligated them to work in their mines, but the savage and inured to war inhabitants of the north, normally despised as barbarians, form the resistence groups known as "ork hunters".
Further in the north you will find nothing but huge glaciers that were the land where the orcs come from.
Even if the people of Nordmar consider the orcs a common enemy, just as all the other inhabitants of the empire, the foreighners from the Old Empire aren't very wellcome because, after all, Nordmar was occupied by the king's troops before the great orc war.
