Geography
Descriptions
The teaser video for the Aether Dancer project includes a map of North America, along with a narrative of the political divisions. This map first appears @ 0:41 in the video, divided
into four factions. The following descriptions, partly taken from that narrative, are not necessarily canon; but this is what we have to work with for the time being.
Maat (@ 1:58) spans the west coast, reaching up into Canada. It is a country of mystery and darkness. Little is known of this state, but they produce proud warriors and are deeply religious.
The Central Empire (@ 0:55) occupies much of central U.S. and Canada. Central Empire North is the Canadian part. Central Empire South covers much of the mountain, great plains, and midwest regions. It was formed with a return to the feudal system. The once-empty titles of Baron or Lord regained meaning, and along with them, the practice of serfdom.life
Oskinus (@ 1:12) includes Mexico and the southwest U.S. but also reaches up along much of the Appalachian Mountains. Not everyone was willing to lend allegiance to the Emperor. To the south, brilliant inventors created the state known as Oskinus. These tinkerers built clockwork armies and technology beyond imagination.
Amazood is the Gulf of Mexico. It is visible on the map during the description of Oskinus
(@ 1:12) but is not narrated aloud.
Lachesis (@ 1:38) covers the east coast and well up into Canada. To the east, the state of Lachesis was formed. Their surgeons and scientists search for ways to cure the new diseases unleashed on humanity since the meteor shower. Horrible fevers raged among the weak and the frail. These hospitals and universities provided hope for the continuation of life.
A still image of the map appears in a feature post about Aether Dancer on The Gilded Monocle.
