Sultanate of Khartous
(Khartous), High Middle Ages (Qamara and other cities), Iron Age (rural areas)--
The Sultanate of Khartous was founded hundreds of years ago by the Khartisines, worshippers of Mah-Barek who came across the Sea of Baal and displaced the nomadic folk living here previously. They primarily claimed the area along the coast, but built trade routes through the interior wherever they could find water sources to support caravans. The fertile Pesha River delta supplies most of the food for northern Khartous. The northern cities and towns are generally prosperous, with even most villages and individual farmers being well off compared to their counterparts in other lands. Many city-dwellers have a sophisticated lifestyle with luxuries brought from distant places by the aggressive trade policies of the kingdom. Much of the rest of Khartous, all the way to the ocean on the west, is deep sand desert. Valuable resources such as lead and silver have been found along the coast and to the west, but the desert to the south is largely unexplored, at least by the kingdom’s present inhabitants.
