Westphalia

General

Westphalia, as its name implies, is the westernmost human region in D'hennex. Once, it was the central capital for the unified An-Yneaith's religion, but ever since the fall of the Emerald Dragon, that soon changed. As it came to pass, the beliefs of An-Yneaith faded from all regions save Westphalia, whose citizens seek to preserve its tenets, among other things. Nowadays, it is something akin to a theocracy, governed strictly by the same individuals that preach their religion.

Geography

As stated before, Westphalia stands at the western edge of D'hennex. In reality it's more of a northwestern location, considering that it's not that close to the borders of the swamp lands that are the undead's domain. The name Westphalia can most likely be construed as "west plains", for during the generations when An-Yneaith was united, it stood in the western plains of D'hennex only. But, ever since the lands were divided up until the present, there have been a few changes to how far Westphalia reaches.

While not the largest human nation by far, it encompasses three distinct areas that allow it to sustain itself, and thrive in some ways. Rather than it being comprised of plains only, the reach of Westphalia has encompassed the western Vi Castis mountains and the northwestern shores of the continent.
