Introduction
At the mouth of the great Ifriq delta lies the emirate of Al-Khadir. A paradise of great wealth and prosperity in the midst of an unruly wasteland. Founded by a tribe of nomadic traders, whom settled due to the pleasant climate and geographic location near the Ifriq, Al-Khadir quickly became a trading hub for races all around the world. The city is a gateway to any who wish to enter the Southern world. The city offers a large market for all kinds of goods from elven trinkets to dwarven drink, but also a large range of local wares such as tobacco, spices and exotic animals. Al-Khadir is also widely renowned for it's vast archive of ancient tomes and magical artifacts that rivals that of the Elven kingdoms.
Geography
The Empire of Anjyarr encompasses the entirety of the Anjyarr desert and the volcanic Jabridian island. In the south the nation’s border is signified by a large mountain range, the southern spine of Eden, which functions as a natural line of defense. On the other side of which lies the neighbouring realm of Valegro. This desert of Anjyarr has little to no mountainous terrain and thus offers no defense from invaders from the east where too the mountain range fails to offer any kind of protection. The empire’s capital Al-Kahdir lies at the estuary of the Akhadian river, functioning as a trading port and a gateway to the Adan Ocean.
The nation’s second largest city Al-Jabrid is located on the Jabridian island. A tropical island located not far from the Heartlands coast. The Island’s steep elevation from the seafloor make it near impossible to access without the permission of the Jabridians.

Culture and Society
Apparel
Despite the many differences between the two races, both the Khadan Humans and the Dark elves have managed to develop a common trend in apparel.
The harsh climate of Anjyarr has made both races favor loose, layered robes and dresses made out of many different materials such as cotton, linen, silk or satin. The wealthy will often be seen wearing clothes accessorized with many different jewels usually made of precious metals such as gold or silver.
The robes and dresses of the Akhadi are usually very colourful and often have accents of gold weaved within the fabric. The only difference between the two races, when it comes to their apparel, is that the elves prefer elegant dark-coloured robes decorated with mostly purple gems and inlaid with silver instead of gold. It is also usual for Akhadis to wear piercings.
While traveling through the desert of Anjyarr the Akhadi are often seen wearing hoods over their heads as protection as well as to hide their identity. On top of that the women are often seen wearing veils covering their face in order to keep the sand out of their face and prevent it from reaching their eyes.

Political Structure
The peoples of Anjyarr highly value trust, loyalty and unity above all. It is thus to no surprise that these values and concepts form the core of their political system. And it is thanks to this system that Anjyarr is often considered to be one of the most free and open-minded societies in all of Eden.
Anjyarr has an elective aristocracy, which means that those with power or riches, or those who are best suited to govern, are placed in charge. These people are known as the high council. These members, once chosen, can stay in office for an unspecified amount of time. They can be relieved of their duties either through death or when they are no longer deemed fit by the Sultan.
The Sultan is chosen by the members of the high council and often comes from within their ranks. He is the head of state. Once a Sultan is chosen, he can stay in office for an unspecified amount of time. A Sultan can be removed from office either through death or when he is no longer deemed suited for the job by a 3/4th majority of the high-council.
