Kingdom of Sameria

A Kingdom to the far east of Elysia, within the continent of Rei’Caelora. Known for its exotic exports, tropical jungles and sand dunes in which the capital resides.
== Description ==
The Kingdom of Sameria exists almost exclusively within dunes and deserts, with a small amount of territories existing within the tropical rainforests to the north. Due to the harsh climate, blazing temperatures and radiance from the sun and stars, citizens of Sameria have a darker complexion, similar to that of Calishites and Chultans in the Forgotten Realms.
The Capital of the Kingdom, Sameria, is nigh-on impossible to find without the aid of Samerian desert crawlers, who charge an extortionate fee to navigate the dunes and guide adventurers to the capital. Those who have attempted the trip without the desert crawlers have been consumed by the heart, native species, wildlife or the gargantuan sand worms that dwell beneath the dunes.
== Environment ==
Sand sheets and dunes cover approximately 80 percent of Sameria. The principal types of dunes include tied dunes, which form in the lee of hills or other obstacles; parabolic blowout dunes; crescent-shaped barchans and transverse dunes; longitudinal seifs; and the massive, complex forms associated with sand seas. Several pyramidal dunes attain heights of nearly 500 feet, while the mountainous sand ridges are said to reach 1,000 feet. An unusual phenomenon associated with desert sands is their “singing” or booming. Various hypotheses have been advanced to explain the phenomenon, such as those based upon the property of Samerian crystalline quartz, but the mystery remains unsolved.
