Maligon

**Maligon is a politically seperated continental area of Zahndomhan**

The land of many lands. during the twilight of the elven races, an opportunistic coalition of shorter lived mortals established an empire of brutality, shaping the very landmass itself with a series of unification battles. Very quickly this nameless empire found itself unable to sustain its rapid expansion. It lost the divine support of the goddess of victory for its internal corruption and quickly drew the ire of the goddess of the wild. When poor governance of multiple territories lead to a soldier’s revolt, it was scattered to the wind a mere 17 years after its first rise to power. The sudden vacuum is still felt in the cultural landscape of Maligon today. In a landmass comparable to Verennicicpt, Maligon boasts 33 small nations and citystates of various governmental, philosophical and cultural contrasts. Despite relations being in a nigh constant flux, it is commonly accepted the hardest border in the mind of the average Maligonian citizen is Gesurb to the immediate north. Grand Kalev was a decisive victor in the last war of the maligon states, (some 75 years ago) and redrew the maligon conference constitution with influence over its allies.
