Fauna & Flora
Korska is home to many dangerous flora and fauna.
Some examples of the harsh and dangerous creatures are large tick like creatures the size of dogs, they hide in the desert floor with their massive pincer shaped jaws open and "primed", ready to snap shut on the poor creature who steps too close.
Natural Resources
The land is rich in iron, copper, and many other metals but its harsh environment has kept many people aside from its residents from exploiting the land.
History
Korska has remained independent for nearly all of its history in Ostara, a feat no other nation can claim. Part of this is due to its location. On the north, east, and west is the harsh jungles of Sarska and on the south is the ocean with many of Korska's larger and well defended cities.
