Earossath, also known as Earossað or Earossad, is a continent located almost entirely in the northern hemisphere. Known as the cradle of civilization, mercantilism, the arts, and industrialism, Earossath can be easily considered the most important continent, as every single sovereign nation in the world is of Earossathian origin or is in the sphere of influence of Earossath.
Currently, Earossath is home to 12 sovereign nations, one of which isn't officially recognized by most nations. Earossathian cultures are diverse, the beliefs are mostly culturally alligned, altough they are many, there aren't any cases of religious persecution as would be expected.
== Geography ==
=== Major Rivers ===
====== Amarojillo river ======
The Amarojillo river is a major outflowing river considered to be the cradle of civilization, being home to the Rojoan peoples, it has heavily influenced the pagan religions of the area, as well as the infraestructure in the area. The world is heavily dependent on the river, as 30% of the world food production is based on the Rojoan agrobusiness. The Amarojillo Delta is the end point to the river, and it is home to the Great Farms, the most important world wonder, which as previously stated, singlehandedly produces most of the food in circulation.
====== Amarillan river ======
Also known as the Kyuinsvhil river, the Amarillan is the point that defines the north and the south of Earossath, due to it being almost exactly on the tropic of minotaur. Altough not used for farming, it is a great provider of food. The amarillan cultures learned to perfect the foraging of the river, yielding approximatedly 12% of the amarillan food production. It flows from the Laranjean Mountainrange,
====== Taupa river ======
Much like it's sister amarillan river, the Taupa river flows from the Laranjean mountainrange, with it's namesake coming from the laranjean people. Due to the lak of industrialization on the Mauvian lands, where it resides, the Taupa river is used for transportation, with the "Taupa river waterways company" (TRC), an Amarillan company, having the rights of investment. Circa 1203, the Taupa river was struck with heavy rains, which led to a branch of the river to be created, which, unfortunately, led to the flood of a huge area who was below the sea level, creating the bay of Mayakau.
=== Mountains ===
====== Laranjean mountainrange ======
Home of the Laranjeans, historical residence of the Laranjean revolution, the laranjean mountainrange is a huge set of mountains that separes the Amarojillo area from the Great plains area. Incredibly dry, it is a natural fortification that has aided the laranjean people many times throughout history.
It has large deposits of valuable minerals, which sustained the Stone route's output of goods for almost 600 years, even under isolationist policies, which plagued the population, who migrated to the mountains seeking external contact, considering the journey to the other side of the mountain is incredibly harsh, the discovery of the great plains was a slow one on laranjean side.
====== Pink mountains ======
Also known as the A'khaphite mountains, the pink mountains are the great natural barrier that limits the Holy forest from the deep south. Historically known for it's unfortunate placement, the mountains are scarce of resources, bringing extreme dry spells to the mauvinian lands periodically.
Named "pink mountains" after the Pannian conquistadors, the mountains have great cultural importance, as they're home of the old mythological gods of the almost extinct mauvinian paganism. They believed the mountains were giants, that due to the sake of time, fell asleep, and were buried over by the winds; Now the giants are dead, and their spirits took ascension as the gods of the south.
====== Ordeeanae Mountains ======
During ancient times, Assulian people thought it was a huge wall, and feared that there could be a huge empire behind them. Today, the mountain is home to the first intermountainous railway, which connects the two sides of the Assulian Orde. The mountains are incredibly cold and uninhabitable, which made it impossible for further exploration of the continent. These impassable mountains are home to countless coal mines, whom fuel the Assulian train company (ATC) for it's intercontinental business, it is the cornerstone of assulian economy.
=== Other important Landmarks ===
==== Pannia ====
Pannia is the biggest island in the continent and in the world, home to the pannian people, it is divided between two nations, the biggest of them being the Pannian Empire, who controls almost 93% of the entire island, the other 7% being the Rojo-Pannian Commonwealth, a small sovereign state in the northeast shores of the island.
The island's location has made it's sovereign nations mercantile powerhouses, with powerful navies, on top of that, the island itself is full of natural resources such as the Rosé forest, and the agrarian plains in the north and the south.
==== Arkhaia ====
Arkhaia is the second biggest island in the continent. Home to the Aguan people, it is a cold boreal island that has influenced aguan religion from it's fundaments to it's deity, the god of cold. currently, it is under the NatEth regime of the Rojoans. Because of its location on the arctic vathotsk area, it's seasons are only two: Winter and Spring. Due to that, the ecosystem of the island is a fragile one, and could easily collapse if the temperatures were to rise.
Early Arkhaian humans developed pale/yellow-ish skins due to the lack of melanine stimuli and dietary availability present in the island, being known as the "Snow people" by the continental humans, they seafared and colonized the north.
==== Mauvinian Archipelago ====
Mauvinia is the set of three islands to the far south of the continent, almost not considered part of Earossath due to it's location on the map, it is in fact linked to the continent via tectonic plates. The three islands are completely controlled by the Mauvinians, who were the first inhabitants to the island. The biggest island is called "Mau'Awinni-ava", but it is also often called the "Guma" island, as taken from the first letters of the name of the four districts (formerly tribes) G'uoro, U'suo, M'ereve, and A'rawa. The northernmost island is the Kihi island, and the southernmost is the N'gnini island.
The islands are Lush, but due to the early collapse of navigation to the mainland Earossath, it's population grew uncontrollably and now only 2/10's of the island are natural vegetation, with the other 8/10's being plains, agricultural districts and cities.
