Huatlan	Country	Huatlan Empire	Remnant of the old Huatla Empire. Claims reform after the Purge, though its military posture and discrimination toward Fauna remain major tensions.
Paxatan	Country	Fauna Tribal Coalition	Hill- and mountain-filled homeland of the Fauna. Natural defenses and isolationism protected it from many outside wars.

Gokia	Ruined Country	None	Former technological giant opposed by Ayeleen and coveted by Huatlan. Believed destroyed during the Purge.
Lintiumia	Ruined Country	Unknown	Cold northern land once tied to Gokia. Believed destroyed during the Purge, especially around the Frozen Maw.
Laurum	Fragmented Country	Unknown	Known for expeditions into the Endless Ocean. Some towns reportedly survived, but no central government remains.
Norum	Country	Norum Republic	Former farming nation that defended against Huatlan incursions. Direct contact is limited, but reports suggest its republic remains intact.
Tale'Nora	Island Country	Maelstrom Crown	Independent storm-wreathed island nation protected by razor reefs and living tempests. Rarely makes contact beyond its domain.
