Nemaha is a coastal region of the realm of Minas Leon on the continent of Atamara. It has a rich and noble history. The land is home to a harsh climate, producing rough men who are battle hardened simply by the nature of surviving life in Nemaha. Though life there can be difficult, it also has considerable natural resources, and pockets of truly beautiful land, especially on the coast.

Climate

The barren tundra of Nemaha.

Nemaha is a vast area of stark landscape, which is frozen for much of the year. The soil there is frozen from 10-35 inches down, making it impossible for trees to grow. Instead, bare and sometimes rocky land can only support low growing plants such as dwarf shrubs, sedges and grasses, mosses, and lichens. There are two main seasons in Nemaha - winter and summer. During the winter it is very cold and dark, and during the summer temperatures rise and the top layer of the permafrost melts, leaving the ground very soggy. The land is covered in marshes, lakes, bogs and streams. This has hindered more than one army marching on this region.

Nemaha is a very windy area however, in terms of precipitation, it is desert-like. During the summer the permafrost thaws just enough to let plants grow and reproduce, but because the ground below this is frozen, the water cannot sink any lower, and so the water forms the lakes and marshes found during the summer months.

The more fertile area of Nemaha can be found on the coast. This is where the greatest proportion of the the human population of the region lives, being the most fertile and usable farmland. The coast sees warmer temperatures, increased rainfall, and by and large mimics the temperate zones of inland regions on Atamara.

Native Plants and Animals

The biodiversity of the tundra region of Nemaha is low, with only 1,700 species of vascular plants and only 40 land mammals able to be found, although thousands of insects and birds migrate there each year for the marshes. There are a few species that do live in the tundra region that thrive and have large populations. Notable animals in this area of Nemaha include caribou, hares, foxes, snowy owl, lemmings and bears.

There are however areas on the coast which are home to many other plants and animals. Especially notable are the great varieties of fish that can be found in the coastal ocean waters. Many other species of animal can be found here as well, all flocking to the more temperate and resource rich coastal lands.

Given the strength of their nation, people of Nemaha are comfortable and secure in their homes, maximizing their production potential and keeping them in good spirits.

In times of war, the armies of the realm are able to draw upon renowned archers from Nemaha. Time and time again in battle, the archers of Nemaha have proved to be essential to the ranged attack, helping turn the tide in battle repeatedly.
