Redlands

The vast north and northeastern plains of the Redlands are so called because of the red-tinted soil in that land. They are bounded on the north by the Ash Mountains, on the south by the Iron Hills, Jivynyt and Alanthi's Forest, on the west by Worquia, and on the east by the Bare Plains. The Redlands have long been the strongest military power of the human countries, unarguably since the time of the Dragonwar. Before that time, perhaps Derykibia could have been arguably stronger, but even then it probably wasn't certain, as the two have never fought each other in war.

Renowned for its populace, military prowess, grain harvesting and rich ore deposits, the Redlands additionally are only second to Vewaquia in economic power. Rarely have the Redlands fallen into corruption, a testament to the staying power of the bloodline of Haldrik Weyston, the first king of the Redlands. The Redlands are also the sacred guardian of the western nations, pressing against the Bare Plains, with the Neryk Mountains and the Eastern Lands not far behind. In times of total Safeevian war, the Redlands are the first, and often strongest, line of defense against the invading hordes of Neryk. More recently, they have also had to weather assaults from Jivynyt in wartime, as that country falls further and further from grace.
