Lower Khemit

Khemit, Lower Roughly considered to lie between the Sea of Baal and the junction of the Stygian and Bakhari rivers, Lower Khemit is the most populous area of the triple kingdom. It is governed by a vizier who is a member of pharaoh’s high council and is expected to manage the territory as its ruler, doing so in pharaoh’s name. Lower Khemit was strongly influenced by the Hyperborean Empire during the centuries of its power, so the cities here tend to be more cosmopolitan, and aware of the world outside Khemit, than places farther south. This extends to religion; temples to the Hyperborean deities are still fairly common in Lower Khemit and are sometimes attended by locals as well as foreigners.
During the military event known in parts of the continent of Akados as the Second Great Crusade, Lower Khemit was invaded by the so-called Hyperborean Monarchy of Foerdewaith. Pyrameses and its harbor were taken by the overwhelming force of the crusader navy, and the city was used as the major supply hub for the entire army on its march to some location of religious significance in eastern Libynos. The invaders also occupied the metropolis of Menefet specifically, and Lower Khemit in general, for about six years. Having taken place barely more than 500 years ago (during the 36th Dynasty), it is still a frequent topic of stories, and foreigners who seem to be from Akados may face resentment on the topic of the crusade. Those stories also support hatred of the Huun for the way they endangered Khemitites by using the area to decoy and spy on the western invaders. Any suspected Huun are likely to be grabbed and taken to the authorities at once.
