Republic of the Bayloah Coast

The Republic of the Bayloah Coast is a republic in the Confederated Republics of Atlastor. The capitol is Julvern City. Bayloah Coast is the second largest republic by area and third largest by population.

Geography:

Bayloah Coast borders the country of Solandro to the south, Corros, Kataneo, and Serissad to the east, and Zorumon and Gordetta to the north. To the west is the ocean.

Major population centers are located along the coast of the Nectrian Peninsula at the major cities of Paloma and Fort Drake as well as smaller coastal communities. Further down, Julvern City sits at the mouth of Julvern Bay. Near the border with Solandro, the city of Meridias and the city of Fulton form the CRA's second largest metropolitan area. Other smaller cities are also located in the Pico and Pinote valleys further inland.

Bayloah Coast is bordered by the Southern and Central Katan Mountains to the northeast and by the Adro River to the southeast. Along the border with Corros, the Adro River forms the beautifully forested Solent Canyon which contrasts sharply with the surrounding Parka Adro Desert. The bulk of the desert is located on the Masca Plateau which is sparsely vegetated. To the west, tropical forests and farmland surround the many inlets around Meridias and further west in the Soltea Islands. Extending from the southern border, the Coastal Ranges protrude up towards Julvern Bay and have a Mediterranean climate. Further up along the coast, the flatter Nectrian Penninsula is characterized by tropical forests, beaches, inland riverways, and citrus farming. Northwards, the rest of the coast is mostly scrubland with a Mediterranean climate with the exception of the Bounty Coast. Inland, The Azoruma Desert and Pinote Valley have cooler climates and less people. In the Pinote Valley, wine making occurs around the Pinote River and farmland gradually diminishes into the coniferous forests surrounding the mountains. In the far northeast, the ski areas are common around the lakes which form part of the border with Mesettra.
