The country is bordered by Jucatta to the west, the Neniros river to the north, and the Sarodin Sea to the east. It is known for its vast, unexplored jungles and rich resources.
Government
There is not much of a central government, which left the door open for foreign nations, Dolac first among them, to gain a lot of influence. As they say; "money talks".
Six different tribes (though their term is closer to "families) each run their part of the country and every six years one of them is appointed by a set rotation to be the "First" and technically in charge of all of Neniros.
Magic
Arcane magic is not too common here though each of the tribes has at least one shaman of not insignificant skill.
Religion
The Nenirosians are very pragmatic when it comes to the gods; praying to whichever god seems most appropriate at the time. This goes so far that in some cases priests worship more than one god and seem to be granted power by each.
Nerull has had a strong foothold here since the Collapse and has been hard to eradicate. Ancev has been quite popular ever since their arrival and their followers are growing fast.
Geography
Most of the country is one enormous jungle and there are few maps or well explored stretches. A few towns are dotted around the country but none are very large and most have to fight against the encroachment of the rainforest. Roads are almost non-existent, a few trails lead from the mines to Nenas but these overgrow so quickly that every caravan has to cut its way through. Rivers are the main mode of transport.
Amisakisak
A near-vertical plane of rock extending upward from the Binabode mountains. It rises out of relatively low land, giving it a steep, pointed profile which makes it a particularly striking peak. Its double summit resembles the tail of a fish, hence the name meaning "fish's tail" in the local dialect. Some believe the entire peak is covered in diamonds.
Inatil Falls
The Inatil river starts in the Binabode mountains and soon runs very wide, creating a staircase waterfall consisting of a two steps, 35 and 40 meters in height. Though almost impossible to reach, it is a sight to behold, water cascading down 270 degrees around, rainbows appearing all over. Legend has it that a deity of a previous era planned to marry a beautiful woman, who fled with her mortal lover in a canoe. In a rage, the deity sliced the river, creating the waterfalls and condemning the lovers to an eternal fall.
