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.
The region of modern Kasepan became a viceroyalty of the Ennseperan Empire in the 6th century ME. During the troubled decades leading to the War of Schisms and the imperial civil war, the coastal region was conquered by Manthi peoples and became the Gahanate of Sijhee, a key part of the Eijult Empire.
In 721 the Gahana of Sijhee declared an independent kingdom, and carried out multiple wars of annexation to conquer the northern regions, forming the modern kingdom.
