Great Lakes Country

Situated in the middle of the continent of Tellaria, the Great Lakes Country is a mostly-neutral trade country. Its borders are kept by various nations whose lands lie alongside it, but trade keeps most gates open. It is bordered by Central Tellaria in the north, Khalvorough in the west, Rasa in the east, and Divern in the south.
Once, the lands and roads were dotted with many cities and waystop towns. Sadly, when the Virgin Lands came, a great tidal wave washed over the Rasan desert. With nothing but dry, packed sand in its way, it crashed through the countryside, destroying everything in its path and turning the lakes brackish for many years. Most big cities have been rebuilt, but all settlements on the lakes themselves were annihilated and their people killed.
Now, the Great Lakes Country is once again a prosperous, fertile route between mighty trade powers. Not as many people venture to Rasa as before the Great Flood, but facilitating trade between Divern and Central Tellaria is as profitable as ever.
Shores have shifted during the millennia, but the true Great Lakes have remained consistent. They are four lakes (Sylvinglade, Ironshield, Dragon's Skull, and the Lake of Leviathans), each larger than multiple cities, crowned with a massive body of water to the north, Lake Convergence. There are other, smaller lakes which border the true Great Lakes, but these are all owned by nobles or nations.
