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 - Anrelian Pantheonplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigAnrelian Pantheon
The Anrel Isles has a rich polytheistic philosophy that sees the world as inhabited by many gods and willful spirits. They view all world religions as valid, but believe gods are tied to certain lands and places. Deities can therefore have separate or even conflicting mythologies, but these are accepted because they are the story of that particular deity. Gods, being non-human, can be capricious and irrational, and their followers adopt a pragmatic attitude to worship.

The Baronies of Ravorr (or Ivawg Rouvawhi in Rouvawetig, Chieftains of Rouvawa) was a confederation of feudal states in Northeast Anasthias, which existed from 573 BME to 288 ME. It first formed as an alliance against the expansionist ambitions of its Saloyan neighbours to the north and powefful BMEAnásthiasBMEEloyounHarthera - Civilised Worldplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigCivilised World

Duospherical Theory is a geographical theory that the world of Helevos is a sphere, with two hemispheres which are the physical reverse of each other. It has been the dominant theory for more than a millennium, with world maps showing Anásthias - Eastern Isles (New Perech)plugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigEastern Isles (New Perech)
The Eastern Isles, also called New Perech or the Spice Islands, are a tropical island group in the Redeeming Ocean at 13ºS, 3300 km from the mainland of Harthera, 4125 km from the port of Narillin. The islands have a highly diverse population of virid plant species, several of which are prized as flavourings or HartheranHartheranHartheranHartheranHartheraHartheran - Edge Landsplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigEdge Lands
The Edge Lands are the mytho-geographic lands, said to lie beyond the four oceans surrounding the Civilised World.
They were named by the ancient Miyarrain. Zahkdarret lies to the west of Anásthias, and Retzayk to the east. The cold north is called the Icerealm, the south being the Icehorns.
These names are used in official maps and academic works, but little used in everyday speech. - Elaymen peopleplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigElaymen people
The Elaymen were an ethnic group living in eastern Anásthias during the Jade Epoch (c.10,000-6000 BME), in an area encompassing modern southeastern Harthera. It is uncertain whether they were an offshoot of the Iskean people, or a mixture of Asokway and Aralsic peoples who migrated from the north. Modern scholars assume they were the ancestors of the language - Elóin Oceanplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigElóin Ocean
The Elóin Ocean [ell-OWE-in], also called the Muor Darat (Mayápo) or Sea of Tears, is an alleged body of water in the Obverse lying to the far west of Anásthias, west of the isles of Hi-Li-Ven. Since few sailors have made it past the Barrier Isles, the existence of the ocean is highly speculative and considered to be a legend mentioned only by ancient Anásthias - Race and Ethnicityplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigRace and Ethnicity
The concepts of race and ethnicity in the Civilised World are complex, related to issues of history, geography and culture. Some theories of the origins of humanity claim that all humans are descended from a single group of original ancestors, while others believe mankind is made up of distinct races with separate origins.

The Golden Ordinance is a natural philosophy which was a key element of Miyarrain culture in the latter centuries of the Celadon Epoch. The “ordinance” was thought to be a set of rules or mathematical which were intrinsic to the universe and observed in nature. Its legacy was important to many later movements, from governance to military conflict and aesthetics. - Green Sea Origin Theoryplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigGreen Sea Origin Theory
The Green Sea Origin is a comparatively recent theory of natural history, proposed to explain why Helevos has two distinct and incompatible kingdoms of life - the virid and the green kingdoms.

The Hartheran Commonwealth was a constitutional monarchy which ruled Harthera for 164 years, from 407-571 ME.

Hiraouok [hee-RA-oo-uk], or Hirerk, was one of the four great cities of ancient Miyarris. As a port city it was one of the most famous, and the hub for trade with the outside world. It is remembered as the White City for its grand public buildings and colonnades of white marble. It was also a great centre for arts and sciences. - Marr Sirqueplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigMarr Sirque

History BMEBME - Miyarrain Peopleplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigMiyarrain People
The Miyarrain were the inhabitants of ancient Miyarris, famed as the most advanced civilisation of the Celadon Epoch. The Miyarrain were the progenitors of all modern Eloyoun peoples throughout eastern Anásthias.

Zetlans are equine mammals related to the garron and the horsis, with a robust frame and a striped hide. They were bred by the Miyarrain to be more tolerant to virid poisoning, and were used for riding and as draught animals. However, their aggressive nature makes them difficult to domesticate and they largely live in the wild. - Zetlik Oceanplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigZetlik Ocean
The Zetlik Ocean is a body of water east of the islands of Tsaykoui, far to the west of Anásthias.
This name was recorded by ancient Miyarrain writers, though no modern explorers are known to have travelled that far and the term only exists in obscure texts.
