Munatan [Moo-Nah-Tahn] is the southernmost region of Anásthias, south of the Dun Trisan mountains. The name possibly derives from a ancient Thalsic, meaning “Land of One Sun”, since the daystar is not visible in the southern hemisphere. Or it may be a reference to the Manthi people who were once the majority population of western Munatan.

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. The south is temperate but more wild, separated from the civilisations of the north by the almost impassable Harthera.
Consequently there are no bridges on the lower reaches of the river. It gradually narrows inland and is navigable to about 100 km, where it divides into many much smaller, non-navigable rivers.
The city of Gundapor is its most important city, lying on its eastern bank approximately 14 km inland.
The Gungo was the traditional boundary between the Ennseperan Empire and the Manthi-Lien to the east.
