Mandia
The central region on the continent of Vald, Mandia has a well-deserved reputation as a breadbasket. These lands seem pastoral, even idyllic, but every land holds its share of dangers, and an unwary adventurer can still meet a grisly end here.
Geography
The geography of the location varies primarily between meadows, fields, and patures, or light woodland. Further south the land starts turning to grassland until it becomes a true prairie. The climate here is temperate, with harsh winters in northern Mandia and much milder weather further south.
This region is bordered to the north by mountains, beyond which are The Wilderlands and the nation of Eroch. This range also extends around the western border, with the Aljanni Desert and the nation of Qandaq on the other side. This region is bordered to the south by immense grassland known as the Grass Sea, and to the east by the glistening blue waters of the Dawn Sea.
Fauna & Flora
This region is home to a wide variety of plants and animals. There are a great many mundane animals here, such as wolves, bears, cougars, foxes, weasels, rabbits, raccoons, and deer, among many, many more. Magical animals, such as griffons, wyverns and manticores also frequent the area along with a wide variety of dragons.
Most of the humanoid population here are human, although halflings are rather common as well. Gnome caravans also wander the area, and many goblin tribes live here as well. The region is also home to less benevolent peoples such as hobgoblin legions, bugbear raiders, and even gnoll slavers in Mandia's southern regions.
Natural Resources
The most important resource Mandia possesses is large quantities of fertile farmland. Human and halfling communities grow many crops, such as corn, wheat, beans, potatoes and many more. Livestock is also common, such as cattle, pigs, and horses.
The nearby mountains are an excellent source of stone and ore. Metals such as copper, iron, gold, and sliver are frequently mined and smelted. The forested areas produce more than enough timber to meet the needs of the Mandian people.
