− | The plateau of Axalvo lies on the southern half of the disc, in a middle latitude. It has a warm summer continental climate ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B6ppen_climate_classification Köppen group Dsb]).

To the south, the plateau reaches a high spot and then shelves away quite steeply to an expanse of broad, cold steppes, which are crossed by slow, lazy rivers flowing east to a distant ocean or south to meet proglacial lakes.

The flora and fauna of Axalvo and the regions north and east of it broadly resemble the 'Old World' of our own Earth, especially Europe and Central Asia. However, the basin province which lies beyond the Sellumeverni mountains provides plants and animals more akin to those found in Central America and the Andes.
