Mi'Rah

We’ll start with the region to the northeast of the empire(#9). This is the largest nation in the region, particularly worth note for its complete control over the southern land routes from Cafril to Yestal and Ehora. A number of low rolling hills form wide basins where water can collect on the mountains and run down to feed the separated communities all across the area. These mountains make passing through the area difficult, and force trade caravans moving through to use a small collection of set routes to successfully move their goods through the area. I don’t think that “civilization” in the sense of a collective governing body exists in this region yet. Instead, what if the communities themselves basically function separately, evolving their cultures independently with minimal interaction with others. I don’t think there are a whole lot of gods in the area, as consolidating worship within these separate communities is difficult. Even though there are large sections of coast, we can emphasize the Ogenkan Empire’s maritime trade by adding natural barriers along the southern coast of this region that block off sea trade through most of the area. However food isn’t as much of a problem as long as you stay in the large basins of the region where relatively sparse amounts of water collect off the hills into the center of these areas. A union of these tribes does exist, though that governing body probably only exists as a system of common defense and trade access. Perhaps this nations doesn’t have a country-level god at all, but instead a small group of city level gods that watch over close groups of these basin communities.
