The Plain of Horses

With its brutal climate and bleak terrain, the Plain of Horses is hostile to human settlement and resistant to civilization. Several strong tribes control substantial regions of the country. The tribes constantly wage war against each other, and cooperation is virtually unknown.   The Plain of Horses is dominated by the towering Chigidi Mountains in the north and east. A vast stretch of the Chukei Plateau covers the western and central regions. The mountains are highest in the east, rising to heights exceeding 15,000 feet. The Anai River winds through the northern ranges.   The Plain of Horses is divided into several distinct topographic regions. The northernmost region is a tundra of treeless plains and frozen marshland. Beyond the tundra to the south of the mountains are a taiga region of forests and the nation’s best agricultural land extending through most of neighboring Lung. Further west is the steppelands, grassy plains that are suitable for grazing animals but are poor for farming. The plains become arid deserts in the southernmost region. Except for a few scattered oases, the desert is uninhabitable.   To many even from Lungshi, there is no way of knowing where The Plain of Horses ends and The Steppe Khanate of Sevaythien begins and in a cold hard truth they are, put simply, one and the same.
