Culture and Locations
Yvabira is a monarchy ruled by a kinas, with many smaller regions given a decent amount of independent rule by minor lords. The main religion is Yvabiran polytheism which is so deeply intertwined with their ways of life that they have no need to name their religion. Their religion teaches that the gods make up the land itself. Yvabirans believe strongly in free will, and that each individual is free to craft their own destiny within the confines of their greater fate. The capital is Oropstov.
Yvabira is almost entirely taiga, with some temperate forest near the northern shores and montane forest further south against the Khatsanaras and Amber Mountains. The northwestern coastal region is known as the Mucklands, the Yvatlands are the central coastal region, and Bymir Basin is the eastern coastal region. The Zatshra River flows through Zatshra from Nhorcea, which is joined by the Qicryana and Jecla Rivers. Oropstov seems the Deianel, Iuqae, Tinine, Avyciv, and Ivdyvat Rivers all join together to flow through it. The River Atce flows through Avsary, and the River Velishla flows from Alacas and through Nomyara. All shores of Yvabira meet the Gulf of Avsaryn in the Batyr Sea.
