The World
At the centre of the world are Hugaar, Pashnaar and the Star Mountains, over or around which the Sun passes every day.

The four edges of the world are impassable and are guarded by Rend.
- North North of Sirdehaar is a vast petrified forest within which Sird himself, the Rendking, has his Castle of Ice.
- East Beyond the eastern sea, the Rendwall is an impassable mountain range, is guarded by a tribe of giants led by an ancient Rend. Some say this wall was breached with the discovery and invasion of Potamanchu.
- South Past the Thousand Cities lies a great ocean where Rend sail cloud ships.
- West Beyond the Axarte Plains lie the Plains of Fire where a Rend rules over the greatest of the Vister tribes.
Lands of the Empire
Alaya
Long after the Saurian domination collapsed, an army of escaped slaves emerged from the Thousand Cities. They settled in the near eastand reasily rebuffed the initial attempts to dislodge them by unleashing demons upon their aggressors. Most recently, in the bloodless Inglorious War, the Pashnaar Empire united with Alaya, to form the Twin Star Empire, much to the chagrin of Sirdehaar. The Alayans have a strange version of Sturianism, involving many elements of Saurian mysticism and magic.
Behind the Mountains
To the East, over the sea, is the Empire's latest conquest, the lands known as Behind the Mountains. Most Potamanchu
Hugaar
Pashnaar
The Saphetian Alliance
A grouping of predominantly coastal city states on the eastern seaboard, including Halys where the game starts, as well as Saphet, Filiers and Sunium. Typically, these states switch allegiance between Hugaar and Sirdehaar, according to convenience, but they are normally considered to be a part of southern Sirdehaar.
The Abbey of St. Anselmo is close to the Convent of Sta. Tereza
Sirdehaar
The northern brother to Hugaar.
Beyond the Empire
Axarte Plains
At the far western edge of the Empire, these plains are where the Vister reside.
The Thousand Cities
To the south and east, beyond Alaya, and over the Strait of ???? is the land of Saurians.
