Arctica
Arctica is a region of the Federal Province of Saralost located on the Gulf of Arctica on the North Tersten Ocean. It is home to two nations, the Kavastad Republic, with its capital Dzialy lying near the border between Arctica and the Grand Tersten Bayou; and the Republic of Arochok, with its capital Artskiy lying far to the north, near the border between the Great North Desert. The border in the south along the Bayou is largely temperate swamps, which become more cold and bog-like further north. In the east, the land is heavily forested, especially along the Arctican Coast, near its border with the Frozen Coast and the Great North Desert. To many people, Arctica is a cold and depressing land sandwiched between swamp and sea. But to the people that actually live there... It's pretty much the same. But that's what community is for. Dzialy is a surprisingly great night out, with lots of bars and places to drink. The city of Ebychok, part of Kavastad is noteworthy as the primary port for cruise ships that travel around the Gulf and towards the ice cap of the extreme Tersten north.
One location of note in Arctica is the Black Bear Mine, one of the most important industrial sites in the region, and ran by a company nationalised by the Kavastad Republic. The Black Bear Mine, as well as other mines in the immediate area, make up the largest employer in Kavastad.
