Plate Theory

Plate Theory is a modern theory of geology, proposing that continental land masses are composed of mobile “plates” floating on a sea of liquid rock. The theory was divised by geologists at the Harlon University in Hartheraplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigHarthera

The Hartheran Union, commonly named Harthera, is an imperialist maritime nation state dominating the northeast of Anásthias. It is one of the two great powers of the modern epoch, arguably the most technologically and militarily powerful nation in the world, only matched by the vast size and wealth of its neighbour, viridOrorrMEOrorrOrorrOrorrOrorr. It explains the formation of the Dun Jaen mountains, the contortion and twisting of rock strata, and the appearance of sedimentary rocks in otherwise inexplicable locations. A particular example of this is the Mangasor region of central Ororrplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigOrorr

Ororr [o-ROARR, ɒ̝rɔ'ɾ], also called the Holy Motherland of Ororr, is a theocratic nation in Anásthias, one of the world's great powers. It the largest nation in the world, perhaps the largest empire in history, occupying the entire northwest of the continent between the mountains and the sea.

According to the theory, the geographical area which is now modern Ororr was once a free-floating island referred to as the Occidentalplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigThe Occident

The Occident is the area of the continent of Anásthias west of the Dun Jaen mountains. Historically this meant the old Empire of Dor-en-Sann, as well as the many other nations west of the mountains before the founding of modern Ororr. Contemporary Ensanni writers occasionally used the term to refer to the relatively wild and less inhabited west coast of AnásthiasOrorrOrorr Plate, located in the Polassirn Ocean to the northwest. This plate collided with what is now Munatanplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigMunatan

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. The term is an OrorrOrorrOrorrHartheraHartheraOrorrOrorrOrorrHartheraHartheraHartheran and Eastern Anasthias, called the Thalsic Plate*, pushing up the Dun Jaen and Dun Trisan mountains. Its continued progress southwest formed the Torthien Rift Valley and is thought will eventually open it up to the sea.

Plate Theory has also been used by anthropologists to support the Green Sea Theory of human life. The greenplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigGreen

Politically the theory has been exploited in Harthera to promote the idea that the whole of the Occident is an unnatural alien invader, the origin of toxic viridplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigVirid
