Isles of Mag'Har

Originally discovered by Seocrasin merchants (1089AT) due to the its proximity to the northwestern coast of Seocras. The Isles of Mag'Har are considered the second great discovery of the Coloniae Era. Only eight of it's many islands are respectably populated. Five of which are populated by native orc tribes, while the others are populated by colonists and traders from the colonial kingdoms. Those of which have all been founded within the last eleven years.



Geography
The Isles of Mag'har are a collection of (mostly dormant) volcanic, rocky, islands with an extremely high quantity of jade and similar minerals, making most stone at least slightly green in colour. The island chain has 3 distinct types of terrain: Mountain, Scrubland, and Swamp.

Mountain
High above sea level, the terrain is rocky with few coniferous trees (mostly cypress) and bushes. Due to ancient volcanic activity the geosphere is quite cavernous.

Scrubland
Slightly above sea level the terrain is mostly rocky with grasses and tall scrub brushes. Although trees are not uncommon, they rarely grow next to each other. The flora is generally quite healthy because of the rich volcanic soils and frequent rains.

Swamp
Occurring below sea level, swamps are the most biologically diverse areas of the Mag'Har isles. The combination of natural springs and heavy rains have made almost all areas below sea level a permanent swamp.
