The region of Haven is geographically located within the North Pacific and consists of two large landmasses known as East and West Haven. Although the continent that includes West Haven also encompasses other regions, including The Democratic Underground, East Haven is completely contained by the Haven region. A large body of water known as the Haven Straits seperate the two continents.

Climate

The region of Haven encompasses a wide range of territory, and as a result, a wide range of climates. Although in most of the region the temperature varies between moderate and cool the Southern portions of East Haven approach the equator. Currents running through the Haven Straits also tend to vary temperatures in coastal nations.

History

The region of Haven was founded as a replacement for the Allied Island States, a loose collective of nations lying on or around the Haven Straits. Shortly after the official designation and founding of the Haven region, the United Alliance of Progressive States (UnAPS) was formed by some its members and Haven became the official home of that alliance. Since the fall of the UnAPS, Haven has become a radically different place, where struggles between a variety of different ideologies have caused rifts in the previously peaceful region. Disputes between the imperialist Scandavian States and liberal democratic Feline and Ilek-Vaad have especially marked the recent history of the region. The Organization of Haven States (OHS) was formed upon the fall of the UnAPS in order to fill the power vacuum and keep the region from falling into war.
