Veron

Veron in the foothills of the Uchalion massif, near the headwaters of the Garys river. On summer nights the hills above the village are dotted with the fires of shepherds, taking their animals to graze on the upland pastures.

Goleryn

Goleryn sits in the warm, oak-covered Epiric hills, near both the Vlandian and Battanian frontiers. Sheep-raising is a way of life in these parts, as is sheep-rustling.

Gamardan

Gamardan sits at the head of a small bay that branches off the larger Gulf of Charas. The wines of this region are unusually sweet and strong, and valued throughout the Empire.

Thractorae

Thractorae sits on a small bay that feeds into the larger Gulf of Charas. These lands, stirred by hot winds from the south and watered by hillside springs, have been used by imperial landowners for the experimental growing of date palms.

Zeocorys

Garontor

Montos

Zeocorys at the foot of the Ilataric hills, running along the southern coast of the Empire. Though the climate is relatively dry here, artesian wells allow farmers to grow bountiful crops of wheat.

Garontor gives its name to the promontory between the Gulf of Charas and the inland Perassic sea. Coastal meadows, where tall grasses tolerant of the ocean salt-spray thrive, support the rearing of fine horses.

Montos sits at the base of the Cursion escarpment, near the Battanian frontier. The foresters here keep a watchful eye on their neighbors, always looking for raiding parties coming westward from the valley of the Miron river to their east.

Lysia

Vinela

Tarcutis

Lysia gives its name to the narrow strait where the Perassic Sea joins the western ocean. It lies just on the Perassic side of the straits, near broad beaches that allow the farming of salt.

Vinela sits beneath the waterfalls where the Aminys river rushes down to join the Perassic Sea. Villagers collect salt from the sea in the shadow of coastal cliffs.

Tarcutis sits on the shores of the Perassic sea. The sandy soil and morning mists, channeled by offshore islands, allows the growing of grapes overlooking the beaches.

Garengolia

Garengolia lies near a rich vein of silver in hills overlooking the Gavys river. The Empire have minted its denars from these mines for centuries.

Primessos

Primessos lies in the wooded upper reaches of the Gavys valley. Pigs, fed on the acorns of the southern oak trees, thrive in this climate.

Hertogea

Hertogea lies in the shadow of Mount Erithrys, a huge basalt slab thrust up from the depths of the earth. Villagers grow olives on the slopes leading up the mountain.

Gersegos

Nideon

Gersegos sits in the gorges of the Miron river, as it cuts between the cliffs of the Cursion Escarpment and the Dryatic mountains. Villagers have sunk mines into a spur that overlooks the village, extracting silver and other precious metals.

Nideon sits on a low-lying meander of the Zeos river, in the shadow of the plutonic Mount Erithrys. Flax grows in fields reclaimed from the river marshlands.

Leblenion

Leblenion lies alongside the Aminys river in the shadow of Mount Erithrys, a great basalt slab thrust up from the depths of the earth. This district is one of the grain breadbaskets of the Empire.

Vathea

Alsasos

Vathea sits high on the slopes of the Dryatic mountains, facing across the valley to the great basalt slab of Mount Erithrys. The villagers mine iron from shafts sunk deep into the cliffs of the mountains.

Alsasos sits in the west end of the Temea, a broad valley north of the Perassic sea. Though the climate is relatively dry here, artesian wells allow farmers to grow bountiful crops of wheat.

Carphenion

Carphenion lies in the wooded highlands between the great basalt slab of Mount Erithrys and the Dryatic mountains. The villagers raise cattle in the highland pastures.

Oristocorys

Thersenion

Neocorys

Onica

Oristocorys sits on the Bay of Ortysia, part of the seaway between the western ocean and the Perassic Sea. Early morning sea-mists from the west and the hot sun of midday allow the growing of wine grapes.

Thersenion sits in the upper Aminys valley, in the shadow of Mount Erithrys, a great basalt slab thrust up from the depths of the earth. This district is one of the grain breadbaskets of the Empire.

Neocorys, the new village, sits in gently sloping land in the Temea valley cleared only recently of forest. The local landowners have established stud farms, supplying horses to the imperial cavalry.

Onica lies on the northern shores of the Perassic sea. The hills of this district are terraced with the olive groves for which the southern Empire is famous, producing a light, fragrant oil.

Dradios

Arpotis

Dradios sits by the Lesser Amynis, a tributary stream of the Aminys river that rushes down from the heights above. Villagers divert the mountain streams to irrigate their rich grainfields.

Arpotis sits on a high bluff overlooking the confluences of the Aminys, Gavys and Zeos rivers. The sides of the hills are terraced to grow wheat, with cisterns to catch the rain blowing up from the sea.

Elvania

Elvania sits on the Bay of Ortysia, part of the seaway between the western ocean and the Perassic Sea. Olive trees grow on the slopes of the nearby hills, warmed by the southern sun.

Aegosca

Aegosca sits at the head of the Temea, a broad valley in southern Calradia. Though named for the goats that used to roam this region, the landowners have turned over the pastures to the raising of far more profitable horses.

<!-- Goat's head Aegoscapsae shortening to Aegosca -Armagan -->

Phasos

Phasos sits amid rolling chalk hills between the Temea and Aris valleys. The rich grass of the down is some of the best horse-breeding land in the Empire.

Elipa

Elipa sits near the upper reaches of the Aris valley. These sunny, well-watered highlands are one of the breadbaskets of the Empire.

Thorios

Thorios sits in the Aris valley in the heart of Calradia. River irrigation and the relatively warm inland climate ensure that the grain fields of this district, along with neighboring Bergum, feed much of the central empire.

Bergum

Bergum sits in the Aris valley in the heart of Calradia. River irrigation and the relatively warm inland climate ensure that the grain fields of this district, along with neighboring Thorios, feed much of the central empire.
