Caras Galadhon

Races: Human, White Elf, Light Elf, Dark Elf, Fire Elf, Earth Elf, Water Elf and all blends thereof
Language: Common Tongue, though families often speak the tongue of their homeland amongst themselves
Climate: Six distinct seasons; Temperate; Mild near the coast
Politics: Geniocracy. Led by a Senate of 9.
Capital: Caras Galadhon
International Relations: Trading relationship with Earth Elven countries of Xieland and Kelxit. Tense relationship with Rheys (Humans) who has a habit of kidnapping people and holding them to ransom, no matter their race. Tenuous relationship with Sier Belen (White Elves) who are extremely violent. Freely welcome anyone to become citizens, especially those fleeing persecution, and free travel within the country. The borders however are protected, especially to the north, to protect from attacks.
Society: Friendly and welcoming to all. The only place interracial marriages are permitted, so most people are of mixed blood.
Size: 910 000 km²
Terrain: Northern Caras Galadhon is hilly and heavily forested, mostly coniferous forest. The middle of the country is mixed coniferous and deciduous and there the mountain range begins and goes to the south. The southern area of the country is mountainous to the east, flat to the west, and predominantly deciduous forest. The entire western and southern edges of the country are coastline; north is Sier Belen; northeast is Xieland; east is Rheys and Kelxit.
Unique Flora:
Unique Fauna:
Resources: They have the best technology of the continent, reminiscent of the Victorian Era, because the human half-bloods are often immortal and have many lifetimes to create things to overcome their human handicaps/inferiorities. Because of their varied geography, they also have many natural resources: water, fish and other water life, wood, mines of gold, silver, iron, nickel, aluminum, diamond, littinum, quartz.

Sier Belen

Race: White Elves
Language: White Elven
Climate: Cold. Two seasons: light and dark, each lasting half the year.
Politics: Dictatorship. The dictator sends out armies to make sure his orders are obeyed.
Capital: Sierlan
International Relations: Closed borders. They have as little as possible to do with anyone, even other countries of White Elves.
Society: Violent even amongst themselves, and they have no tolerance for intermarrying. If one of their own people marries one of another race, they do what they can to destroy the entire family, sometimes even the parents of the one who married outside their race. Very much a hunting/gathering society.
Size: 187 500 km²
Terrain: Permafrost throughout the country. Towards the south there are some coniferous trees, but north is only frozen tundra. The furthest northern areas are snow and ice year round, even ice floes. Little to no fertile land. North western border is coast. East is Kreydon; Southeast is Xieland; South is Caras Galadhon.
Unique Flora:
Unique Fauna: Seals, polar bears.
Resources: Whales, seals and fish which they use for food and pretty much everything else they need. Homes are made of ice/snow.

Xieland

Race: Earth Elves
Language: Earth Elven
Climate: Cool year-round; snowy in winter.
Politics: Kritarchy: all villages and regions are ruled by a judge, though they are very peaceful and rarely in need of law enforcement. There is no one leader.
Capital: Nu'kemen
International Relations: Tenuous relations with Sier Belen; Cautious relations with Kreydon and Rheys; wonderful relations with Vintsand and Caras Galadhon. No real army, though every citizen is fully trained in case the need to fight arises.
Society: Very communal, where everyone helps everyone else. Friendly to strangers, though cautious.
Size: 125 000 km²
Terrain: Mountainous. There are scraggly bushes and lots of scrub brush, and there are a few places with small forests. The homes are built right into the mountains and the ground. Furniture is often carved straight out or the rocks the homes are carved from and is therefore permanent.
Unique Flora:
Unique Fauna:
Resources: Some wood; goats and yaks from which they get wool, milk, cheese, meat and which serve as beasts of burden; certain rare berries; lots of mines (stone, gems, metals, crystal); excellent crops due to their ability to manipulate the soil.

Kreydon

Race: Human
Language: Arkandian Human Tongue (as opposed to the Human Tongue in the Four Lands)
Climate: Cold. The northern half has two seasons: light and dark. The southern region is consistently cold.
Politics: Anarchy: no national government, but each nomadic group has one person they follow.
Capital: No permanent cities, towns or even villages: rather the populace is made up of tribes that are constantly on the move.
International Relations: Largely ignorant of the people around them, though the White Elves have become the "bogeyman" of their people. They are protected by the Fire Elves of Vintsand, who don't want White Elves as their neighbours. They don't have trade between specific countries, but they will trade with anyone passing through. They try to keep on good terms with neighbouring countries in case they need help.
Society: Focus is on survival. Mostly friendly but protective of their people. Northern nomads spend winters in the north sealing/fishing/whaling, and in the spring go south to trade with other tribes.
