Terratree (Arbori: Teridroz [dɛɾɪtɾɔs]), officialy the Terratree Kingdom (Arbori: Teridroz Karkamia [dɛɾɪtɾɔs kaɾkanɪʔa] or Conquered Kingdoms of Terratree (older term) is a country located in eastern Dinerous in the historical region of Terratree on the Arborian Peninsula. It lies on the coast of the Arborian Sea, the Targo Bay shared with Uzech, the Tantiumis Gulf shared with Uzech, Ernian and Arita and the Harsan Gulf in the east of the Penninam Peninsula. The country borders Uzech and Olshdragun in the east and Mexus in the north.

The capital city of Terratree, aswell as the federal city of the Penninam Region, is Ameleis (Arbori: Anelejz [Amɛlɛjs]), one of the oldest cities in Dinerous, also being a major port city on the continent and in the Arborian, Frestien and Vatsian Seas. The city lies on the mouth of the Karkiz'ki River and is built in between 3 local hills, the Cassel Hill, the Zhaka Hill and the Arlan Hill. The city traces its origins to the Kalnuin Aranese peoples of modern day Aran, having been founded around 200 BCE, according to the Amaro Tribe written records. The etymology of Ameleis means "n*ew life*".

The geography of the country contains mountains, like the D'ajis, hills, plains, forests and highlands. The D'ajis have historically been used as the border between the Kalnuin Aranese and the Aramo, as well as being the modern day borders of the Penninam and Tarcta Regions.

The national day of Terratree is July 5th, as it marks the date of unification of the Arborian Kingdoms, which were united by King Cassel I of the Penninam Kingdom in the Arborian Unification Wars of 527. Altough it seems that the country has existed for more than a thousand years, the country was conquered, collapsed or split various times after unification. The final unification war was in the year 1711.

The country is ruled by the House of Arboritt, with King Montjuu III being the current monarch and the head of the House. Previous arborian monarchs include: Ferian V (his father), Cassel IX (his grandfather), Arlan IV (his first cousin once removed), Tarth II (his grand uncle) and Zhaka IV (his great grandfather), just to name a few. His other grand uncle and son of Zhaka IV, F'reteriki Arboritt, became King of Sorne in 1858 as Fredreitse V of the House of Azules. This family connection served as the beginnings of friendly relations between the two countries, and eventually to the membership of Terratree in the Hyberdeen Pact.

## Etymology

Terratree's etymology is to this day speculated and disputed, but the general accepted theory is that the kingdom, after unification in 527, was named after the region, also called Terratree (Arbori: *Teridroz*). The actual name of the region translates to "*Land of the Trees*" and comes from the Aranese words "*Ílzkúzkua kraçozl*" (lit.: *earth tree*), specifically its heavy arborian abbreviation, "*I**t**h**e**zj**ri** **tr**a**oz**l*", as the Amaro Tribe people lived close by and commonly intermingled with the Kalnuin Aranese. The -ri suffix in "*ithezkjri*" comes from Old Arbori, meaning "*land of*", so the direct translation would be "*land of earth tree*", possibly referencing the areas full of trees and mountains in which the Kalnuin Aranese lived in. Later in time, the term was just translated as "*land of the tree*" as the "*land of*" suffix and "*earth*" word fused together to mean the same thing - land in general. The first recorde usage of the term "*Teridroz*" was used in 450s, which was written as "*Therjidraos*".

The demonyms, adjectives and language translations all come from the same rootword, "*arbhuran*", which is believed to mean "*strongmen*" in Old Arbori, the language of the Amaro, as they possibly labelled themselves as "being strong".

Modern languages' translations for Terratree either come from the abbreviated Kalnuin word "*Therjidraos*" (Mexan: *Torotroze*, Isernian: *Tarratora*, Sornese: *Trëë*) or from the the rootword term "*arbhuran*" (Pardevan: *Αρβα*). In Aranese, the translation is the same word that is recognized to be the origin of the name, *Ílzkúzkuakraçozl*.
