Ach' Mastul

The Imperial Territory

A small continent just off the coast of Draland and Stre' Kaas, This region is known for their arts culture and bloodshed. Originally named "Athenae", This region was one of the first human colonies and were the ones that originally conquered Athrae, Deciding to name it something similar to show that they controlled the area. The region was sieged at some point by a large army comprised of an Orc/Dwarf/Elf union (Mainly Orc). It was eventually conquered and renamed "Ach' Mastul", Due to Orcish naming traditions.
The Orckin called this region their home, Many considered it the "Orc Region", The one that most people associated with them.
After a few millennia of the Orcs owning the region, Ahriman was resurrected, Taking Althra and upending the social norms. After this event however, The Draland Province became a barren wasteland and the Orckin were free to take over the area, Since the people that originally didn't want them there were mostly gone now. As a result, The Humans were also free to move back in and claim leadership of Ach' Mastul. They've been ruling the region ever since then, Establishing a small empire. They have kept the changed name, To honor the ones that came before, But people are free to call it either name.
Nowadays, There aren't a whole lot of "unique" things to see here, There are a lot of cities and farming towns scattered throughout the region. The main attraction to most tourists is Vetera, With the more interesting areas being certain mountain tops or forests, If only for the view.

Geography

The majority of the region is covered in a brownish-green grassland, With many small and large hills scattered around. There are a few rivers and lakes, But they're small enough to not be included on the map. There are a few small mountains that suffer the same problem, With the only notiable mountain range being near Mount Dren and Dhul Hearth. There are also a decent amount of forest areas, But they can be somewhat weirdly placed and sparse.

Climate

Ach' Mastul tends to be relatively cool for the majority of the year, While only really changing near Winter, Becoming much colder and snowing quite frequently.
