Akye

Akye was a desert territory of the Holy Eavonian Confederation and home of the Arashi Eavon people. It was made up of three regions; Phortune, Karnataka, and Kabo. Akye’s western border was shared with Kharam, its southern border with Dove, its eastern border with Frauji, and its northern border with the Verdant Sea. 

Phortune

Phortune was the northernmost region of Akye and was home to the territory capital of Ekhe Noshara. Due to its proximity to the Verdant Sea, Phortune was the most populated and prosperous region of Akye. Its name came from the abundance of gold and silver beneath the rocky dunes and its access to international trade across the Verdant Sea. Ekhe Noshara was one of the smaller territorial capitals, but it was still renowned for its distinct and rare Arashi architecture, cultural diversity from across the Confederation, unique fusion cuisine, and one-of-a-kind merchandise. The oldest mulgafta in the Confederation, Drablů Plaza, was also in Ekhe Noshara. The city did unfortunately receive a reputation for being home to thieves and swindlers, this reputation cleansed in modern times as city officials began to crackdown and regulate all official exchanges, but whispers of a black market could be heard. 

Karnataka

Karnataka was the central region of Akye and had no major city constructed within it even into the late 6th Dispensation. This was one of the driest and most inhospitable places in the entire Confederation, very few living things to be found there besides the ever-vigilant Arashi nomads. The Arashi adapted to living in such conditions but rarely made any permanent settlements in this region. Eventually, the Confederation constructed oil refining complexes in Karnataka as petroleum became highly sought after to fuel the new rise of technological advances, as well as the Ebsiko Railway which passed through the region and connected the capitals of Akye, Dove, and Kharam together. 

Kabo

Kabo was the southernmost region of Akye. The largest settlement in the region was Sortas, a tourist town that catered to all manner of travelers. Along with standard amenities found in most Confederation cities, Sortas was also home to an expansive underground cave system full of fresh aquifers and massive quartz formations. Private land owners in the city competed to become the most popular cave tourism destination, ramping up the spectacle of their caves by adding swimming areas, camping grounds, and even amusement parks that never saw the daylight. Following the assassination of a prominent cave park proprietor by a commercial rival, The Akye Territorial Delegation enacted the Subterranean Heritage Preservation Act. Consequences included the immediate government ownership of all commercial cave parks and standardized safety inspections, which some regular tourists claim siphoned a lot of the appeal of the homegrown cave parks.
