Luxemburry / Geography
Luxemburry is an alpine realm of 480 km² in the heart of the Alps, bordered by France to the west and south, Germany to the north, and Switzerland to the east. It is a country of five valleys around one river, one lake, and one mountain.
The Realm sits in a bowl of the high Alps. The Luxemburry Alps close it to the north and east; the Western Forest March falls away toward France. The Silvershine rises in the Cinder Highlands and runs west through the middle of the country past Valdoria. Lake Aurelia lies south of the capital. Mount Cinder, the highest point, stands at the north end of the bowl and is visible from nearly everywhere in the Realm.
The northern and eastern ranges, the passes, and the climate.
The highest peak, the sacred shrine, and the First Descent.
The river that runs the length of the Realm and the lake that is gold at evening.
The capital, 15,200 people, on the river at the centre.
Purgnar, Bonic, Verdian, Aethelgard, and the villages.
Ibex, chamois, eagles, and the four reserves.
