Errazol

Summary
The Sultanate of Errazol is a Medium-large country based around the western branch of the Ahnara River, which carves its way through inhospitable desert. Natives to this region are called Solans, and are well known for their cunning and resilience. The climate is primarily arid and tropical, with occasional sandstorms and very rare rainfall. Errazol maintains manageable agricultural product, but still needs to import many crops to supplement their food supply. However, exports of precious gems, fine glass, and their trade agreements with Maq’lavoon keep the country as a whole rather wealthy. Errazol is bordered by Aretophiles to the North-north-west, Maq’lavoon to the Northwest, the Sea of monsters to the east, and uncharted desert and savanna to the west and south respectively.
