Geography

Geology

Necros-Vacuia is composed of a single, enormous island straddling the equatorial regions of the Luclan Ocean, off the west coast of the Exclusion Zone mainland. The only island nation in the Zone, its overall shape is something of a deformed crescent, dominated in the center by the shield volcano that is believed to have initially formed the island, Mt. Gorgorai, known in Vyrnnasa as Y'kannathi.

The topography of Necros-Vacuia is quite diverse. In the west, a vast basin bordered by the Belakai Mountains and Gorgorai itself has given rise to the Czernora Rainforest, the most massive center of biodiversity known in the Zone, and potentially on-planet. By contrast, however, the north arches sharply into the Necros-Vacuian highlands, terminating in the Zoryano Mountains, which extend into a small promontory known as Re Kyrain (The Diadem).

In the east, the land is much more of a steady plateau, with the exception of the Eleison Valley, and it terminates in the south with an extensive system of mangroves. Necros-Vacuia's beaches are plentiful, and in the heavily-urbanized east have been well-developed for the enjoyment both of people and tourists; they are perhaps the only reason the Commonwealth maintains a tourist market.

Necros-Vacuia is quite plentiful in mineral resources; the two most significant deposits are uranium and titanium, both of which are major components in the Necros-Vacuian wonder alloy olympinite. Other natural resources include significant deposits of iron ore, cinnabar, manganese, platinum, cobalt, promethium, crude oil, and, thanks to the network of Gorgorai's lamproite tubes, diamonds.

Hydrology

The Czernora River is the widest river known in the Exclusion Zone, and almost certainly the cleanest, though it is only the third longest. Possessing at least 25 tributaries, it crosses literally the whole of the island, originating in the Highlands near St. Ark, but possessing its mouth in the far-southwestern Ostas Prospekt, draining into the Luclan Ocean. While the Czernora itself is sediment-rich thanks to the erosion of its rainforest basin, many of the tributaries are known for sparklingly clean drinking water, especially the Mahtanes River, whose watershed provides for Eleison City itself.

In rural areas, the Czernora and its tributaries are a time-tested method of transportation, and the Commonwealth government maintains an extensive hovercraft system.
