Geography

Download the most recent map of Europa :

The main continent of the world of Europa is divided into five zones, each with their own distinct appearances, environments and dangers. They are listed from east to west following the Apollo's course through the sky as follows;

The far-eastern lands of Ancient Byzantia; The furthermost eastern empire, Ancient Byzantia reaches from the city of New Byzantium in it's furthermost western parts to the Capadocia territories. These lands are home to the Eastern peoples of Man, as well as the Sun Elves and the Gold Dwarves.

The eastern lands of Old Achaia; East of the darklands is Old Achaia, reaching eastward to the borders of Ancient Byzantia and southward to the old lands. Home to the peoples of Man, the Wood Elves and the Half Races, it encompasses an inland sea.

The central darklands known as The Forbidden Lands; Barely a century has passed since the last great war, but even that is overshadowed by the looming ominously of the darkland's past. Home to all manner of dark races such as the Jinn, Drow, Duergar and Svirfneblin, it is the dark divide between the lands of the east and those of the west. On each side, great walls patrolled both day and night keep all manner of creatures out of the free lands. This is why it is named The Forbidden Lands, a place where even the bravest of heroes venture only if they must, for few return unchanged from it's dark lands.

The western lands of Gaullaland; From the western wall of the darklands, Gullaland spans west and southward and is home to the nothern peoples of Man, the Wild Elves, Rock Gnome and Shield Dwarf peoples. Its lush green forests belie its dangerous denizens, hiding many secrets.

The far-western islands known as Britannium; Washed by the waters of the Great Flood, the scattered islands of Britannium can be a difficult place for travellers. These remote isles are home to the sea people of Man and the Moon Elves. It's people are ever watchful, ever vigilant, looking to the sea from its shores for signs of 'the raiders'.
