## 1498 Map of Zahkarith

Zahkarith is a continent comprised of the evolving Enithian, Yengol, and Yhizhin countries. It is bordered by the Selano Ocean to the west, the Devern Ocean to the east, the Netherean Ocean to the north, and the Aukauster Ocean to the south. Though originally consisting of only seven countries (Imari, Buurkard, Euvalia, Pynkantyr, Rauen en Schna, Vehemia, and Velene), as of 1549 it has since grown to thirteen, with Euvalia dissolving into Yenea Vel, West Euvalia, and Yugarsk and Pynkantyr shrinking and dividing into Dakaan, Imezad, Muentem, Republika Rynise, and Stolesk. In addition, Rauen en Schna became Kjrdza and Vehemia was retitled Vastaria upon joining the Velanese Empire.

## Religion

The continent is home to a variety of different religions.

### Verianism

Verianism - a polytheistic religion consisting of 10 supreme gods and a countless number of minor gods. Their deities are heavily inspired by the aspects of man. Verianists prioritize respect and justice above all other qualities. The afterlife is determined by intention rather than action, and is split into three possible routes: release, reincarnation, and absolute death (best to worst respectively).

#### Cirnace Verianism

Cirnace Verianism - a polytheistic religion derived from the spread of Verianism in Euvalia with 8 supreme gods and a countless number of minor gods. Their deities, though derived from the original traits, are geared more towards abundance in farming and war. The afterlife consists of a system of reincarnation in which you're reborn from bottom class to high class until you're born as a monarch. After your life as a monarch, you achieve release.
