Gengris

The Gengris is a state to the north of New Crobuzon, located in the southeastern tip of the Cold Claw Sea. It is a cold, dark, half-drowned island that is largely, but not completely, hostile to outsiders. The Gengris is the home of the Orcs.

Cities

The Gengris has at least two Orc cities. The most striking features of the cities are the malachite chapels, pabulum towers, limb farms, and forced-labor bile workshops, where transgressors are ground down. Areas of the cities are also home to farms where humans are bred for obscure Orc purposes.

Demographics

The Gengris is primarily home to the Orc, although traders and merchants from a few other races, primarily Gith and to a much lesser extent Human, live among them.

Military

The perimeter of the country is protected by Orc fortresses and redoubts, as expected of a reclusive race that usually shuns outsiders.
