Midvar

The continent of Midvar is long and wide, extending from Mera in the south to the Barren Wastes in the north. In the far north are the frozen Lands of Always Winter, where a large amount of land remains uncharted due to the extremely cold temperatures. The continent stretches for about 1,700 miles from north to south and for some 1,600 miles at its widest point east to west. Midvar's eastern coast borders on the island chain known as the Shattered Isles and the Turbulent Sea. To the south is located the Amethyst Currents, and within it the Southern Islands. The northern lands of Midvar are less densely populated than the south despite their roughly equivalent size.   The climate varies between extremes of heat and cold across the large continent. The North is the only region that is perpetually covered in snow, even in the hottests of summers. In the far south, the terrain becomes hotter and more arid, the Ashen Dynasty contains the continent's only desert. Off the southeastern coast is the Shattered Isles, with no true government these lands are wild with man and beast alike.   The continent is also home to immense woodlands, the largest of which is the Elven forest of Florindel. There are numerous other major forested regions throughout Midvar but the three largest are the Ebonwood in Mera, the Misty Forest of the Yohir, and the Dire Wood of Seggath.   The Shattered Isles lie east of Midvar and there is no regular trade between the islands and the Kingdoms of Midvar. Some islands are known to exist in the Ragged Depths to the east of Faerna, but the true extent of this ocean is unknown.   Regions   Midvar is divided into five Kingdoms and the untamed lands of the Barren Wastes. Midvar is bordered to the west by the SeaOfSorrow, to the south by the SeaOfMaroa and to the east by the TurbulentSea and the FrozenTides in the north. The continent shares similar geography and climate to north america, it is large, about 2,400 miles wide at its widest point, and extending for almost over 3,300 miles from the Sea of Maroa to The Frozen Tides.   The continent's terrain varies immensely.
