Geography
- Fod Continental
- This map is utilized for the identification of major sea and land entities. Originally Fod Continental was drafted for tracking the progression and regression of crops, as well as tracking game. Location is identified by the combination of land entity name, sea entity name, and cardinal direction.
- Fod Cityscape
- This map is used to pinpoint the location of any important location, such as a City with a great population or a government facility. Only a City with a significant government presence is located.
Gabriel
The average temperature is 20°C with little precipitation. The islands of Gabriel ( from north to south ) are Lebanon, Tehran, and Gaza. There's little differentiation between the seasons. Gabriel divides the Old Sea and the Serpent's Tongue. This area is vulnerable to earthquakes.
Imo
Imo has an average temperature of 16°C with moderate precipitation. Summers are hot, humid and short. Winter is usually a short season as well, only moderately chilling. In the extreme north-east are the Baffin Mountains (8,800 m), the only major mountain range in Imo. The Ali'a Plateau extends from the Old Sea to The Orient, and is known to be the most fertile farming land in the nation. Between the Floral Sea and Serpent's Tongue are the Floral Plains, a low lying area responsible for draining flood water into the sea.
Sek
Sek has an average temperature of 4°C with a heavy amount of precipitation year round. The continent experiences very cold winters, with short cool summers. Extending south from the Imo juncture are the Floral-Winter Mountains (4,400 m), and along the eastern coast are the Orient-Knight Mountains (5,600 m). The Kach Basin (Central Sek) separates the mountains, and consists mostly of tundra. To the south-east are Knight Waters which remain frozen indefinitely. Winter Sea deteriorates in the summer. Western Sek is generally more habitable with accommodation highlands and little gradient. The Ocean of Tweek is off the east, the Serpent's Tongue is off the north.
Political Divisions
| District
|
| A symmetrically proportioned administrative division, five hundred kilometers in length by five hundred kilometers in width ( 500 km. x 500 km. ). The exception to these proportions are islands which are classified as a district regardless of size. A coastal district includes the water which lay within its boundaries. A district is appointed a marhsall by Imperial House.
|
| Ward
|
| An administrative division proportioned according to population ( one created for every tenth percent of the national population ). Each Ward is granted a speaker in Popular House to be decided upon by election. A ward can represent several cities, part of a city, or thousands of plantations depending upon population.
|
| City
|
| An urban community with a significant population and economy that is differentiated from a town by legal status. (People have the power to appeal Imperial House for a city charter, which grants certain powers.)
|
| Town
|
| A residential community of people ranging from a few hundred to several thousands, although it may be applied to certain metropolitan areas. (People have the power to appeal Imperial House for a town charter, which grants certain powers.)
