Geography

Nordjaelm is located on the South-Western side of the North-Western continent of Alpa, bordered by Shalorja to the the South-East, and Jaxukuk across the sea to the West. Otherwise, Nordjaelm is surrounded by no man's land (Khémožihhkonn).

Geology

Southern Nordjaelm has soft, clay-rich soils formed from the gradual erosion of the Davazog mountain range. The coastline is lined by limestone cliffs from sedimentary deposits. Around the Shotra, there are rich, silt-filled soils ripe for farming. Most of the country's agriculture is centred around the river, as the rest of the land is barren. North Nordjaelm is formed of ancient rock that makes up the core of the Davazog mountains.

Climate

Nordjaelm is a quite cold country, with most of the Northern regions being dominated by the Davazog mountains. Most of the population lives on the coast, or along the Shotra (Šotrë) river.

Demographics

Ethnic groups

The largest ethnic group in Nordjaelm would be the Dúmari, who have lived in South-Western Alpa for centuries. They can be split into the Legimar, Leģoki and Thaljan, with the Legimar being the majority. The Leģoki live in North-Eastern Nordjaelm, mostly in the province of Nordérþs, around the city of Hazalğær. Thaljan and the fewest in number, with almost all of them living in Mirïn and some surrounding villages. The four-armed Dokkar live in the Northern Davazog mountains, with its capital of Akažolvar, and are very few in number (about 70,000 speakers of the Davazog language, after which the mountains are named). There are many Shalorjan living in the South of Nordjaelm along the border with Shalorja, making up the 2nd largest minority population. The first are the Kyzyl, which claim Western Nordjaelm as their home, and there are currently 5 million Kyzyl speakers, with their capital of Košl. The Nordûn also make up a signifcant minorit population, who migrate across the Northern regions of Nordjaelm throughout the year.
