Geography
Climate: In the northern region, the climate is arid and dry, with almost complete humidity. The temperatures are blistering in the day, and usually are at around fifty degrees Celsius, but the temperatures drop severely in the night to around twenty degrees. The southeast is known for its temperate beaches, which are understandable cooled by coastline wind currents. The southwest is a mild delta which is known for its cities and dense populations.
Natural Resources: Natural gas reserves, petroleum, coal, iron ore, copper, salt, limestone, copper, sulfur, zinc, various deposits of stones.
Other Resources: Extensive agricultural areas in the south, which harvest a variety of fruits that include pears, grapes, and other desert fruits. Grains and cereals are also grown here, which are then shipped to the areas that are in need of food because of poor harvesting.
Natural Hazards: Frequent earthquakes, flooding after heavy rain seasons, scorching desert temperatures and sand storms.
Regions: Geographically, the country of Ghassan is divided into four regions, each with their own geography and political atmospheres. The people in each of these regions are just as diverse.
•The Southern Coast- The southern coast is known as a popular destination for tourists and Ghassan traveling personnel. It is a place where the modesty of the Islamic culture clashes with the extremities of Western fashion. Its beaches are vast and filled with resorts and expensive cuisines. It is a place where most Ghassan could never dream of visiting though.
•The Basir Desert- The central region of the country, which is mainly filled with nomads and small pools of water. This region is isolated and hazardous, and only experienced Ghassani dare traverse it. The temperatures here are unbearable, and the humidity will rip through anyone. This is why there are barely any people living in this region.
•The Outlying Areas- This is the arc that surrounds the Basir Desert on the eastern and northern sides of it. These regions are mainly poor, tribal areas, where strict Islamic law is enforced. These regions are extremely impoverished and a poster-child for human rights violations. It is also here that the main colony-resistance takes place. These places are notable for their twisting ravines and cutting mountain passes, which are almost impassable without Ghassani guides.
•The Al-Harith Bay- Comparable to the coastlines, the bay itself is massive enough to house the entire navy. It was here that in the early 1970s that the petroleum was first discovered, setting off an explosive journey to finding the rest. The capital of Al-Harith is an ancient Islamic pilgrimage site, and it houses one of the largest Islamic populations outside of the Middle East. The cities here are largely developed, although each is filled with so many homeless and poor persons, that it is impossible to ignore. It is also here that the government’s headquarters can be found. The population here only makes up a small minority though, as the majority of the people live in the tribal, poor regions.
These four districts also make up the four political parties that are found within the country, although politics are almost unanimously completed by the Al-Harith Bay politicians.
