Sarema
The continent of Sarema is one of the largest continents on the planet, and its latitudinal extension may be the greatest of all, with its northern coasts extending far above the Tropic of the Blossom and its southern coasts well below the Tropic of the Huntress. It is surrounded by the sea and its borders touch the three most extensive oceans: the small Soclima Sea to the north, the Aelinar Ocean to the east, and the Ozkeretan Ocean to the west, while to the southeast it is bordered by the great Yalathon Ocean.
Thanks to its geographical location, Sarema is mostly characterized by tropical climates, while only the northern and southern extremities fall within the features of temperate climates. Moreover, there are no areas characterized by a cold temperate climate, except for some very limited high mountain areas. Another significant feature of Sarema is the presence of an extensive desert area in the central-northern part, which is the largest on the planet.
Ikora
The mighty and proud Kingdom of Ikora is located in the easternmost region of the Sarema continent. It is also known as the Obsidian Horn due to its geographical shape that is the birthplace of one of the largest Anthro races, the Rhino people. In the northern hilly savannah of Ikora, bloody wars are fought, to the detriment of the Cheetah people, who later will become an independent protectorate of the kingdom. While the conquest of Porcupines and the Hippos' island took place almost without bloodshed, rivalry between Rhinos and their neighbor Elephants led to a series of wars on Cheetahs' territory, causing them significant losses and several decades of going back and forth between kingdoms.

Cheetahs - Hippos - Porcupines - Rhinos
Jandyz
Jandyz is a small kingdom-confederation that originated from a cultural affinity since the dawn of time. It's known globally as the Equatorial Bazaar, owing to the vast amount of lost riches, treasures, rarities, and antiquities that it holds. Jandyz is composed of two races that are as distant and different as they are mentally close and similar. During the prehistoric era of Manta people, it was extremely difficult for them to establish contacts outside their race due to their unique mental language, which no one could hear or comprehend. This situation persisted until their first encounter with Lemur people who, unexpectedly, were open-minded enough to listen "words". From that venerable first meeting, a unique and inseparable bond was forged between them.

Lemurs - Manta rays
Kemethiron
Kemethiron, also known as the Sun Princedom, is the expanded territory of the Lion people's sovereignty. The Lions, loudly asserting an alleged direct descent from their Ancestral Prince, govern their lands with divine right and, often, with an iron fist. Just a century before the Tale, the great-grandfather of Siptha began a war to expand his territory. In truth, it all began somewhat quietly, as the Camel people surrendered after just a few battles. However, during his old age, the Pharaoh lost his temper due to the constant plundering by the Antelope people. Thus, he took up arms and conquered their territories, showing them the terrible mistake, they had made.

Libzar
The large equatorial island off the Ozkeretan ocean is considered a true paradise, which is why it's commonly referred to as "the dancing island". While peace has not always reigned supreme, the few wars and rivalries, primarily stemming from the Parrots' tendency to dominate the small Canaries population, ceased about a century prior to the Tale. Both races have always been deeply devoted to Sia Mori, and for this reason, the deity revealed itself to them and guided them towards a future of peace and beauty. Since then, the island has been governed by a thriving diarchy in which each of the two Governors, belonging to their respective people, is elected through an oligarchic system consisting of aristocracy and priestly offices.
ANTHRO RACES
Canaries - Parrots
Mehak
The northwestern region of Sarema, known as Mehak, is certainly not considered the most inhospitable. On the contrary, its large hilly and mountainous areas make it one of the most temperate regions on the continent. However, its reputation is tarnished by the presence of countless promontories, dunes, and rocky caves, frequently used by marauders to harass unsuspecting victims. Initially, the Mehak region was comprised of three distinct peoples, each managed separately, often with overlapping territories. However, at the beginning of the Tale, after the conquest of the Zebra people by Kemethiron, Mehak became a territory exclusively reserved for two predatory races, who were separate and without a central government, verging on almost-anarchy.
ANTHRO RACES
Hyenas - Jackals
Turao
The long strip of impenetrable equatorial jungle that divides the Sarema continent in two is Turao, also known as The Iron Jungle due to the strong political imposition of the Gorilla people, who are fervent worshippers of the deity Caamiran. Until the events of the Tale, and for some decades thereafter, Turao never had a central government or territories with well-defined borders due to the difficulty of finding fixed and immutable borders within the equatorial jungle. Nevertheless, the management of the territory has always been defined, albeit unofficially: the eastern mountains belong to Gorillas, the central river area is shared between Crocodiles and Chameleons, and the western hilly area belongs to Leopards.

Chamaleons - Crocodiles - Gorillas - Leopards
Yphoree
The Mastodon Empire of Yphoree, while not the oldest on the planet, is one of the most unified. Since prehistory, all races within the empire have lived together peacefully and shared the same territory, just as their feral counterparts have always done. Even the two predator races within this vast territory were not physically capable of overpowering their neighbors. Thus, after several centuries of self-managed settlements and villages, the Queens' leadership emerged, and the noble and wise Elephants were entrusted with the leadership of the whole kingdom, giving life to the largest and southernmost empire in Sarema.
