The politics of the region is tribal, and prevailed upon by the monks and their lofty set of ideals. Most of the religion is based on animal totem worship, respect for nature and a wariness of technology. A hunger for simplicity and worship of the cosmic dance of nature leaves the populace in a technological dark age, instead relying heavily on magic, and what nature itself provides.
Defensively weak, the jungle itself acts as a barrier between it and the outside lands, the caves and mountains of the region making the Jungles into a protected valley. The Jungles of Ka border the area between the Elven Lands and An-Yneaith. The most predominant formations are the ruins of a lost battle in the basin, and the entrance to the Jungles being guarded by a vast valley of flowers high in the mountains.
