Anásthias [a-NAS-thee-ass / ænæsθiːæs], or [an-ass-THEE-as] is an equatorial island continent, heart of the Civilised World. The north straddles the equator and is hot and humid, while most of the equatorial centre is an upland plateau with fertile river valleys, and stretches of arid plains and desert in the shadow of the mountains.

it was conquered by the Ennseperan Empire and rebuilt as an important imperial colony and base for extension of imperial authority in the region.

In the later days of Ennseperan rule the city was increasingly rebellious. An uprising in 517 led to harsh repression, with the city being entirely locked down for many months causing widespread starvation, disease and death. This incident is now known as the Gundapor Massacre.

In 522 ME imperial rule was overthrown, and the city became part of the Manthi dominated Eijult Empire.

Following the collapse of the Eijult Empire, Ennseperan authorities forcily deported many Eijult-ethnic Manthi peoples to Gundapor by ship, considered a war crime.
