The Aurillian Empire

The Aurillian Empire, also reffered to as the Empire of Aurillac or simply Aurillac, is a large Empire located in the Northeast of Sabrim, bordered by several smaller states including Astheria, Borschau, and Resrin. It is largely made up of the territory formerly controlled by the Kingdoms of Aurillac & Reyllea, as well as Osdor, Mevin, Célesan, Kraja, and Altis Lis, who now constitute the Emperor's most powerfull vassals. 
The Empire can be broadly divided into the Heartlands and the Outer Regions, with the former consisting of the smaller vassals & The Ilivian's holdings, and the latter the domains of the 5 major vassals
== Geography & Climate ==
=== Geography ===
The Geography of the Aurillian Empire is varied due to it's size. Most of the northern parts of the Empire lie within the basin of the river Reylle- with the notable exception of the Desert of Mevin-, while the Southeast is largely dominated by the Astherian Mountains. The Southwestern region of the empire also holds several notable features, such as the Iliviaris Mountains, the Plateau of Deros and the river Auros. 
=== Climate ===
Due to it's size, the climate of the Empire is quite varied. While the north has a continental climate, the south has a temperate climate, and some parts of the east a relatively dry climate- which is largely caused by the Astherian mountains. The South is usually relatively warm throughout most of the year, while the north has colder winters
== Regions ==
=== Western Reyllea ===
Western Reyllea is by far the largest region, stretching from the northern lordships to the Iliviaris mountains. It is also by far the most agricultural region- with it's rolling hills and plains dotted with fields-, and has therefore commonly been reffered to as the breadbasket of the Empire. Notable features of the region include the Reylle-Occiden, the Bridge of Allençon over it, and the various castles leftover from the marches on the former border between Aurillac and Reyllea
=== Eastern Reyllea ===
Eastern Reyllea is a heavily forrested region east of Aubusson, which has historically been somewhat sparsely populated compared to the west. As a consequence of this, the region knows nearly no true cities, and is instead spread out over smaller towns. The Lords of the Region have always been fiercely independent, and were the last Reyllean lords to submit to Aurillian rule- after the Battle of Auvarage.
=== Northern Aurillac ===
Northern Aurillac is a relatively varied region, which can be more accurately described as several regions in one- the Iliviaris Mountains, the coasts near Aurillac and the Inland region of Akreas. the Region has several cities, notably Searnu, Akreas and Aurillac- The Imperial Capital. This is a trend for the region, as it's most common characteristic is it's relatively high amount of cities- a trait it shares with Southern Aurillac. Additionally, the region is also home to the fortress of Iliviaris
=== Morai ===
Morai is quite a small region, and plays host to a few important sites- most notable among them the Palace of Morai, one of the original seats of the Ilivians. It is notable for it's high population of Anmoran and Anmuran, whom have remained somewhat clustered near the Palace of Morai. The Region is also famed for it's wine and vineyards.
=== Southern Aurillac ===
Southern Aurillac is primarily composed of forests, with a coastline along the Rostris Strait. Much like Northern Aurillac, the South has several notable cities, the largest among which is Orudea. Notable features include the Ruins of Mores- which was once the Capital of the Velos Princes- and the River Auros, which forms the region's western border
=== Marshes of Auros ===
The Marshes of Auros is a region comprised solely of the Auros Delta, and is relatively uninhabited. It's most notable feature is the Castle of Revoun, which- much like the entire Delta- currently belongs to the House of Auran. It has few notable exports to speak of, and the region is comperatively poorer than the rest of the older Aurillian regions.
=== Southern Osdor ===
Much like Southern Aurillac, Southern Osdor is primarily covered in forests, and also has a coastline along the Rostris Strait. It's most distinctive city is Osdor, which is famous for being the location of the Grand Spire. It lacks many geographic features of note, save the river Auros, which here forms the Region's eastern border. The Region is, however, famed for it's fruits
=== The Plateau of Deros ===
