The Squalid Plateau
The Squalid Plateau is an unclaimed land rich in wind, heat, and sand. Neither Striceland to the south or Alyeska to the north are willing to incorporate this land into their borders, even though there would be no resistance. Most of the plateau remains uncharted. In the areas that are charted, there are no significant finds of resources, to include water. Several attempts at exploration were made from the Grand Handsome Mountains but none ever returned.
Geography
The Squalid Plateau is a vast desert bordering Alyeska to the northeast and Striceland to the east. West of the desert plateau are the Grand Handsome Mountains, and beyond them Broken Bow Bay.
An attempt to map the desert near Hope Springs and Boring in Striceland, proved fruitless. It was determined that the last chance for water leaving Boring was the Crystal River and the last chance for water leaving Hope Springs were the springs themselves.
Anyone who ventures too deep onto the plateau is never heard from again.
