South East
Saenn
Saenn was never built to be ruled from a single centre. Its strength lies in flexibility and maritime reach. Each island carries its own dialect and micro-loyalty; the Saenn Marina Militare (SMM) represents the continent's most coherent military force, and even it operates more as a confederate navy than a unified command.
The Kovari Isles occupy a legally ambiguous position — officially disapproved of by central Saenn, quietly tolerated for the strategic leverage their privateering provides. The Outer Reach Territories, in the eastern and southern extremities, are the closest thing Nirah has to a true ungoverned zone: some ancient structures there predate modern psionic theory entirely.
Current Political Status
Decentralised and trade-dependent. The SMM is a party to ongoing conflict negotiations. Outer islands remain effectively ungoverned.
