Geography & Climate
Nan GorGwaith has many interesting features. We shall start with the mountains. The most dominant feature of the land is Mount Orodruin, a dormant volcano that is 20, 320 feet or 6.19 kilometers tall. Smaller peaks exist around the mountain, and near the north-west border is Mount Dolmed. Due to the inclimate weather and extremely steep sides, no climbing expedition has been mounted to explore it. No one is sure of its height, but the majority think it not as tall as Orodruin. The mountain range that supports these two great peaks is known as the Hithaeglir Range. The foot hills are known as the Taur-en-Faroth. Further explination of the meanings behind these names will be available in the language section (to be published in the future).
Nan GorGwaith is located along the Gulf of Jaihu. This is the major body of water that much of the sea trade occurs on. The next largest is Lake Evendim. It is not known at this time what the lake is called by other nations. It is located on Nan Gorgwaith's western border, and is not divided up among other countries. (ie no territorial waters, it is a "free" lake) There are other minor lakes, but they are dwarfed in size. There are three major rivers that flow in Nan Gorgwaith. The largest and longest flows from Lake Evendim and makes up a large part of the south-western border. It is known as the Adorn River. The other two flow west out of the Hithaeglir Mountain Range. The northernmost is called the Onodlo and the southernmost is the Ringlo. Both empty into Lake Evendim and have been known to flood the land in between frequently. There are two other rivers of note, although they are not as large. One is the river Brilthor, which flows south out of the mountains and empties into the Adorn. It makes up part of a regional border. The other flows northward from Mount Dolmed. It empties into the Gulf of Jaihu and is called the river Sirith. It also forms part of a regional border.
