Countries of Rok
(Refer to the numbers on the included map)

1. Anglewood: Halfling territory. Largely made up of an unsettled frontier.

2. Blacktide: "Seaocracy." Strong naval nation. Primarily human, with a large half-orc population and cosmopolitan cities. The question of rule is constantly in flux between the five family nobles.

3. Devidolm: Human feudalist monarchy. Strong system of knights, large peasant population.

4. Fejosia: Military giant with a mix of humans, elves, and half-elves. Home to the seat of the Universal Pelor Church, the city of Giadorra.

5. Flordepher: Dragonborn kingdom with a strong caste system and access to a newly important fuel source.

6. Helthron: Ogre empire. Savage, with an economy reliant on goblin slavery. Notionally members of the Universal Pelor Church, despite little oversight from its administrators.

7. Irongrad: A wealthy Dwarven empire rich in natural resources. All civil servants need to pass stringent merit tests.

8. Lands of Grace: Ancestral home of most of the continent's elves. Home to much of the remaining Wildwood, and the birthplace of the Pelorite religion.

9. Libertauria: Minotaur nation that is relatively new on the political scene. Founded by freed minotaur slaves, provider of many soldiers.

10. Malkholm: Human/Goliath principality that is regularly wracked by civil wars.

11. Neurolux: Democratic republic. The most cosmopolitan nation of Neurolux, with the highest economic growth. One of the few areas that practices magic with relatively few restrictions. Home of a nascent intellectual revolution, and one of the few nations engaged in trade with Ophaelon.

12. Northolm: A human nation heavily aligned with the Lands of Grace and Fejosia. Currently dealing with tensions stemming from a foreign, elvish queen.

13. Rayland: Home to many tribes of half-elves. The recognized ruling tribe follows the Universal Church of Pelor, but civil wars in the region leave the question of administration unanswered.

14. Terracosta: Urban half-elf naval power. Economic system is heavily socialist, though many newly-dispossessed nobles resent this direction.
