Rhayna's location
Rhayna's location


The UPRAN has coastlines on the Cordilian Sea to the west and various rivers like the Katharistis, Mikros, Imisy and Trómeros. Rhayna borders to the north by Qaweritoyu and Nori Natto, to the east by the Mikos Valley, to the south by the Valkyrian Republic, Hystaiga and the Federal Union of Kosbareland, and to the west by the Cordilian Sea. Rhayna has an area of 931,948 km² (359,827 sq mi) which makes it one of the biggest countries in the South Pacific.

The longest straight-line distance in Rhayna from north to south is 970 km (603 mi), while that from east to west measures 1,370 km (851 mi). Rhayna has roughly 1,416 km (880 mi) of coastline on the Cordilian Sea. It has an Exclusive Economic Zone of 275,408 km² (106,336 sq mi).

Provinces

UPRAN is divided into 41 provinces, which includes two city-provinces in Rhayna: Pzarya (Pzarya province) and Rouketa (Rouketa province). There are twelve provinces in the Kryo Lake region and twenty-five in the rest of the Rhayna Desert, eight in the Alla-gy Desert and another eight in the Nea-gy state.

Natural regions

The UPRAN is mostly desert. 188,797 km² (72,895 sq mi) - 20.2% (Rhayna: 33,706 km² (13,014 sq mi) - 3.6%, Alla-gy: 19,771 km² (7,634 sq mi) - 2.1%, Nea-gy: 135,320 km² (52,247 sq mi) - 14.5%) - of the total land is cultivated and permanently inhabited. Most of the country lies in the Rhayna and Alla-gy deserts created by the Prostasía and Defteros mountain ranges, and the savannah plains of Nea-gy.

Rhayna's geological history has produced 5 major geographic regions:

  • Kryo Lake
  • Apoala River
  • Tipo and Mikos Valleys and jungles
  • Rhayna Desert (encompasses Rhayna State)
  • Alla-gy Desert (encompasses Alla-gy State)

Despite covering a relatively small area of Rhayna, the shores of Kryo Lake are the richest and most populated regions. Together with the large and densely populated industrial cities of Nea-gy, they hold the majority of UPRAN's population. The three most important rivers of Rhayna are the Tromeros, extending approximately 360 km (224 mi), the Imisy, extending approximately 481 km (299 mi) and the Apoala, extending approximately 1371 km (852 mi).
