General notes (Unfinished, will be structured later):

The Empire of Ermarian is a nation spanning the planet of the same name, which lies within the Alxus System (Alxus III, of a system with only three planets).

Almost entirely covered by oceans, it possesses four known, inhabited continents, named Aizo, Pralgrad, Valorim and Vantanas. The stories of seafaring explorers tell of a legendary fifth continent they dubbed "Doston", which allegedly rose out of the sea during a natural disaster, but no records support this.

The surface of the planet Ermarian is ruled by the Empire of the same name (usually called only "The Empire" by its inhabitants to avoid redundancy). However, it possesses extensive cave systems that are rendered inhabitable largely through magic.

Besides the Empire of Ermarian (explained below), the planet is home to a few other distinct nations, most of which inhabit the cave systems. The largest of these is the Kingdom of Avernum (formerly called Exile), originally a penal colony established by the Empire to get rid of criminals and undesirables.

In the course of events after its establishment in 770 Imperial Era by Emperor Hawthorne II, Avernum developed from a prison for criminals to a dungeon for any kind of dissidents against the sovereignty of the Empire. After most remaining non-humans (Nephilim for the most part) had been exiled as well, it became a dumping ground for the political enemies of anyone with the power to pull the right strings. Eventually, the exiles of Avernum struck back and assassinated the emperor (then Hawthorne III), followed by a long subterranean war between the Empire and Avernum.

Other nations on Ermarian include the Slith Realm of Bahssikava and the nation of the Vahnatai, which both lie below Avernum.
