Enyanin

The Woodland Realm

Enyanin, the wood-elven homeland, consists of five regions. The first is the grand Enyanian forest. This is a vast and dense tropical forest, with many different types of trees and animals living in it, it also a one very large river going through it, the Lethi river, which exits into the white sea. This is the heartland of Enyanin, and it is geographically separated from many of the other regions by the Caraethina Highlands, part of which are known as the dark forest, the most remote, and densely forested part of the country Secondly, is the Enyanian plain, known as their province of Aethria, which is a modestly sized plain in the northeast of Enyanin, this used to include the region of krelland, in Westingham, and parts of what is now Isich, but these lands are far removed from the elven heartland, and they were not able to defend them. The third is the Enyanian section of the marnwood, this is a more temperate and less rainy forest that covers a band of land in the north of the country.  Lastly, the fifth, is the isle of Llianmye, to the east of Enyanin, it is a very mountainous island, and it has little to no strategic benefit, especially because it's crawling with vampires, but the Enyanian military likes to use it to train, and therefore its Enyanian, and it also helps to control the exit of the local seaways, and straits, giving them more control over maritime matters and trade.

Government

The Enyanian monarchy is a cognatic primogeniture, which means the eldest child will inherit regardless of gender. And because princes have a tendency to die in battle, there have been a lot of queens. Or as the elves call it, the Ethyn, which is the elven word for a king/queen, it is not a gendered term, because the elves have always had cognatic succession laws. The Enyanian population isn't very spread out, mostly sticking to a few of the biggest cities and most of these cities are on branches of the same river, meaning  those parts of the nation are very easy to rule directly. All the cities on the Main river are ruled directly by the Ethyn, and administered by viceroy's, the other cities are ruled with more autonomy, as part of provinces, in Enyanian culture, bishops are the most common for this function, as the church plays a large role in their governing structure, especially in the more remote areas of the realm.
Military Their military primarily consists of light archers, with heavy bows and long blades with a slight curve, which suit them the best, due to their country's dense forestation and uneven terrain. They also possess a sizable navy. All the army and navy is raised and controlled by the Ethyn.

Provinces

Enyanin has thirteen sub divisions, seven of which are viceroyalties, ruled by representatives of the Enyanian crown.
These are: Annat, Onyialdu, Ynan Yllith, Athtan, Uthai, Qurae, and Mathadh Yllith.
Three of them are Bishiprics, ruled by Prince-Bishops, religious figures chosen by the church.
These are: Marrandi, Aethria, and Maerhïennan.
They have one colony, Bakanmye, and one unincorporated territory, Saranmye, which is officially still part of Anmye, but is now defacto run by Enyanin.
Llianmye is a military district, it is so mountainous and perilous that the Enyanian government has not bothered to actively occupy it, as this is considered a waste of resources and manpower, the island is administered from the administration's building in Jealeth, and is only really used for military purposes.

Cultures

Wood Elves are the primary Cullture of Enyanin, making up nearly 75% of the population They stereotypically eat tree-grown fruits and vegetables and are known for their light brown complexions.
Eastern Wood Elves are separated from the others by the Caraethina Highlands, which has allowed them to develop a separate culture and ethnic identity. They skin tones range much darker than their western kin, much more simular to the cliff elves, although they are not closely related. These elves make up 8% of the Enyanian Population.
The Grass Elves make up an entirely different culture, their appearance is that of much lighter skins, and lighter hair colors, they have their own distinct culture, and once, even their own nation. They make up 11% of the Enyanian population
Northern Wood Elves are often mistaken for their western kin, but their culture is much closer related to that of the grass elves, they represent the people in between, they are the ones who crossed the highlands, and made them their home, now primarily living on the northwestern coasts of Enyanin, but never forgetting their mountaineering past. They make up a little over 5% of the Enyanian Population.
Finally, there are the Saranmyans who live in the newly occupied island territories of Enyanin, their Culture is closest to that of the cliff elves, and they make up a tiny fraction of Enyanins total population.
