Kieran Country

Kieran country is a state in the continent of North Azkan.

Geography
Kieran Country‘s geography varies greatly across the country. It ranges from flat, nearly tropical forests and plains in the southeast to warm and sunny in the southwest, and cool, oceanic and continental in the northwest and northeast to the high, cold Pinora and Stanko Mountains surrounding the flat and arable Broad Valley and the hot, dry Oaxcov Desert near the border with Acison. Kieran Country can be divided into 13 state regions each with its own characteristics of population, geography, climate and culture. Map of the 13 commonly defined regions of Kieran World:

Climate
As with the geography of Kieran Country, the climate also varies greatly. It can be almost tropical in the far southeast and be in a blizzard in the northwest at the same time.

Northwest:
The coast of the northwest region is generally mild, with cool winters and mild summers, but generally gets more extreme in the Harwin Valleys and the Arnerican Region. In the east, where the Pinora mountains rise, there are

Greater Kieranopolis:
Greater Kieranopolis is one of the mildest regions in the country, mostly due to the influence of the ocean. Most of the area has cool winters and warm, but not hot, summers. However, the temperature generally increases as you go south and gets more extreme as you head inland. The precipitation also varies across the region, with less precipitation going to the south and east and summers gradually getting drier going southward. The Oceanic zone (Köppen Cfb) is the most prominent climate zone in the region. Smaller zones of Warm-summer mediterranean (Csb) exist in the southwest and around Lake Nancy, and continental (Dfb and Dsb) in mountain ranges in the northeast.

Southwest:
The southwest coast has the mildest climate in all of Kieran Country. For example, in Lorrania, the temperature rarely goes below 5d c (41 f) or above 30 d c (86 f). This area is classified as Csb (Warm-summer Mediterranean), with moderate rainfall in winter and dry and sunny in summer. In the extreme southwest corner, the summers are hotter, so it is classified as Csa. The Csa zone also exists just east of the Lompara range. To the east, semi-arid and arid zones prevail, being away from the influence of the sea.

Grasslands:
The Lomac Grassland is generally a transition region between the Pinora Mountains and the Trabino Range to the Northeast, the Eagalia range to the east, the Oaxcov Desert in the south, and the coastal plain in the west. Although most of this region is semi-arid, much of it is used for farming and grazing. Temperatures become more extreme heading away from the coast. However, the region around Lake Nancy is mild and mediterranean.

Desolate Ranges:
The Desolate Ranges have a very diverse landscape with many climate zones. The extreme south is a hot desert zone, with warm winters and scorching summers. Kieran Country’s hottest recorded temperature, 52.7 c, was recorded in Morina on July 26, 1955. As one goes north, the climate becomes gradually wetter and colder. In the region’s largest city, Desertia, the average temperature in January is 7 c (45 f) and 26 c (79 f) in July, and is classified as Bsk (Cold-Semi Arid). Immediately north of Desertia, the Trabino Range rises and can see snowfall each month of the year in some parts. In the resort town of Golden Eagle, just 50 miles north of but at 7000 feet, the average temperature in January is -4 c (24 f) and only 15 c (59 f) in July.
