Kasuria
One of three continents on the Urrth. This one, unlike the other two, is also an entire country. It is made up of 19 counties, 9 Northern and 10 Southern, which are each run by a Greater and Lesser house.
Lithe, Kosh, Hurpha, Spreekle, Aldric, Raideth, Malcom, Ralston, Mt. A'Kerry, Glasny, and Sormegar are referred to as the Highlands or the Cold Counties. They are sparsely populated, and poorer because of the shortage of Raptors. Raptors, Ostrix, and Kiwi don't do very well in the cold, and Raptors will not lay eggs here.
Sontray, Challis, Darvin, Rovarri, Harfang, Symbidia, Desdemond, and Tranzish are referred to as the Hotplains or the Hot Counties. They are densely populated in comparison and much richer due to their bird economy. Raptors, ostrix, and kiwi thrive down in the south where they lay eggs and spend most of their lives.
Urrth
Kasuria, the middle continent, takes the place of real world North and South America.
In Drakoria metal turns to dust. This is the homeland of wyrmmes and their ilk. Furres and bugges are slaves here.
In the Olde World magic fizzles to a halt. Vampires and werewolves reign here in the background as there are no mages to hunt them.
(It is also important to note that Drakoria's geography is offset compared to this map, most specifically it is far more south given all of the Wyrmmes cities would need to be in the warmest areas versus far north)
As per Jena's request, I'm posting some additional world equivalents-- just one for now! But I alt almost as badly as she does, so who knows what the future holds. I've always felt that lumping everything east of Tunis into "Taigoria" or simply neglecting it altogether hinders creativity, and I know there have been plenty of noncanon additions from players over the years, so here goes!
Capital: Kolcata -
Spoken Language: Bharra.
Written Language: Bharraskrit.
Regional Dialects: Rajasthani(north,) Mewarri(south,) Dundarri(east,) Jaipurr(west.)
India <-> Bharrat.
(and because I am a detail freak, I feel the need to explain the odd name choice. Bharat is an internally recognized name for the country itself, the additional 'r' was to give it some Talzhemir flair.

COME ON JENA, JENA PRS. PRS JENA.
Written Language: Bharraskrit.
Regional Dialects: Rajasthani(north,) Mewarri(south,) Dundarri(east,) Jaipurr(west.)
(These are totally optional, I like additional flavor, so I picked some regional dialects and assigned them to quadrants.)
There may be more details I add as I flesh out Bahadur and find need for them!
