Spegikho
Geography
Spegikho is one giant forest, with a few open spots where the cities are build. There is a small mountain range near the capital Novapolis. But the mountains are not that high. Near the War Camp is the only open field that is not being populated by trees or by people. This field is called the Pillow Rock field, because the rocks lay all over the field.
The kingdom is bordered by two neighbored kingdoms Aucha and Fantaseria. But it is only possible to enter the kingdom through Aucha. Because a huge and fast river streams between Fantaseria and Spegikho.
Ecosystem
Spegikhio has a climate that looks a lot like our earthly Semi-arid climate. It is very misty in the mornings and it rains often. The citizens say that the Storm God loves them a bit too much, or hate them if you ask someone who is from another kingdom. When the sun shines the temperatures can rise to 30 °C (86 °F), but when it is clouded the temperatures stay around the 18 °C (64 °F). But the citizens have learned to live to the temperatures. The Naiads even love it.
Ecosystem Cycles
Spegikho has four seasons. Winter, spring, autumn and summer, although the temperature when it is clouded stays the same. The seasons come with their own type of weather and challenges.
Winter
When winter sets in to the forest, most of the animals go into hibernation. There is a lot of wind coming from Fantaseria, the kingdom of snow and ice. This wind brings snow, that somehow stays for a couple of days. But the temperature doesn't drop below the 18 °C (64 °F). Most of the trees are bare, and seems lifeless.Spring
The winter passes and the snow melts away. The sun comes out a bit more, the animals that went into hibernation wake up. Some even start breeding. The growth of new plants and flowers sets in, and some trees start to wear blossoms. Everyone inside Spegikho marks the spring as the most beautiful time of the year.Summer
The spring bleeds over into summer, without too many hick-ups. The trees change the flowers for fruit and the forest is green. The sun appears on the daily and the temperatures rise until it is 30 °C (86 °F). The animals are moving calmly through their days and so do the citizens of this kingdom. The summer is also known for their thunderstorms.Autumn
The autumn sneaks in, and the temperatures drop to 18 °C (64 °F). The clouds hide the sun once again and rain falls almost on the daily. The animals start with gathering their food supply for the winter. Citizens of the kingdom gathering the colored leaves in their gardens, to protect their plants from the winter snow. The trees inside the forest are starting to change color, for the normal green to a mixture of orange, yellow and red.Fauna & Flora

Natural Resources
The kingdom of Spegikho is a kingdom dominated by forest. So one of the major resources is all kinds of wood. But that is not the most popular thing on the market, merchants of the other kingdoms come to the markets to buy the Honey products, which include the honey itself.
But there are more resources than honey and wood. There is the overload on fruit, vegetables, fertilizer (made from leaves or unicorn manure). Meat from all kinds of animals and their hides.
Tourism
Spegikho is a land well known for its beautiful sights, all year round and for its natural resources. The tourists and merchants that are visiting are eager to try the Honey products. Or they are dying to see a unicorn, a species that only lives in Spegikho. But most of the tourists do not know where to look for one. Most of the time they walk past one without noticing it, or mistake it for a normal horse.
