Eustria
Eustria is a fertile, expansive region in Rodinia, nestled between the Karak Mountains to the north and the World Tree Mana to the south. Its flat, verdant plains are ideal for extensive agriculture, making it one of the most productive farming areas in the land. This lush terrain, with abundant resources, has fostered thriving civilizations throughout history, and the open plains have made it especially suited for powerful cavalry forces. Outremer, which once dominated all of Eustria, developed its elite cavalry here, a tradition that endures to this day and contributes to its military renown.
Geographically, Eustria is well-protected by natural barriers. To the south, the Ashina River flows, marking a clear border from the Manalands, while the formidable Twin Sister Mountains lie to the east. These peaks, with the Kor River beyond them, create a virtually impenetrable eastern boundary. In the west, the Karak Mountains serve as a shield, and the open pass there leads to the Great Narnen Plains, adding both strategic significance and a link to further lands. These natural defenses form a fortress-like region that is difficult for any would-be invaders to breach.
Historically, Eustria was once known as Alicaze until the Eustrian people arrived, founding a kingdom that dominated the region for centuries. The Kingdom of Eustria established its legacy through its remarkable fortifications, with walls and forts renowned for their endurance and strength. Many of these ancient structures still stand today, remnants of Eustria's rich past and a testament to its once-mighty kingdom. The region is now divided among The Kingdom of Vermilla, Outremer, and Hispania, though Eustria’s historical and strategic importance remains pivotal for all who control parts of it.
