Zoroas Caliphate
A group of largely desertic lands sitting in the lower levels; these lands have formed by sedimentary accumulation, and have few geographic features. Thanks to this, crystals can be mined without going to ground; water is scarce and the Caliphate's lands often have to take steps to literally shore up their territory, with Land Zoroas having been surrounded by a cement wall. Most inhabitants are semi-nomadic even within their lands, simply due to the inability to build stable foundations. Crystal dust in the sand causes Zorians to have a green hue to their eyeballs, although this peculiar mark only takes a few months to acquire or lose. Many come here to study psi; due to the need to import water and most foodstuffs, Zorians are stereotyped as traders, and there is definitely truth to that. The Caliphate is a relatively benign religious state, although the current Cenobiarch has exhibited a streak of isolationism. (Stereotype: Persian, with a touch of Dutch)
