The Continent of Astrania

Astrania is the continent on which our story begins. A land that is steeped in the lore of the wild fey, and hasn't had much in the way of contact with the rest of the world. This land is viewed by others as a somewhat backwards place, that puts far too much stock in the power of their Good Neighbors. Many outsiders think that it is because of the strong beliefs in the power of the fair folk that Astrania has such a high rate of anomalies in plane rifts. It is true, indeed that Astrania has far more occurrences of these tears in the veil than their neighboring lands, but no one truly knows what the cause is of these surges in power. It may be because of the higher level of plane anomalies in this land, that the inhabitants have evolved such a high respect for the legends of fey nature, or it may be the opposite. Belief in a power feeds the power of a thing, truly, but who can say which came first?
Astrania has four countries that serve as political powers: The Elven Nation of Edrain Estax, The Dwarven Kingdom of Othorfeld, The Human Tribal Alliance of Edoraxi, and The Halfling and Gnomish Republic Alliance of The Greenling Hills and Barrowhall
Of these political powers, all but the Human Tribal Alliance have joined into the Grand Council of Astrania, the major ruling body of the land. Othorfeld is the most recent ally to join the council, a cause for much celebration throughout all of the united lands, particularly with their close neighbors, Edrain Estax.
