The Solis Empire
“It has taken months for me to travel the vast reaches of the empire. I admit that it is incredibly impressive the emperor’s arm reaches so far over mountain and desert. However, the people of northern and southern Solis almost seem to be of different nations were they not united by appearance and dedication to the North Star.” - From the Journal of the Unnamed Traveler

Geography
Despite being horizontally split by the Devilstone and Enridge mountains, the Solis Empire is the largest nation in En. Northern Solis is a rich river valley with many natural resources. While southern Solis is mainly desert, there are plainlands and coasts for the people to use. Most southern Soli reside in or near the Mothwing Woods.
Politics/Culture
The Solis Empire is ruled by an emperor or empress believed to be descended from Primus’s first creation. The ruler is assisted by the Six Houses, noble families who preside over aspects of the empire.
House Asitrix - sometimes known as the “House of Spies” the Astirix are in charge of protecting the capital and handing internal affairs
House Vexis - the religious house, they rather zealously maintain the Church of Primus
House Killex - the merchant house over land trade
House Pollux - the merchant house over sea trade
House Vallex - the military house, arguably the most powerful house since the empire depends on its robust military to keep the empire together
House Faxius - the house of industry, mainly the mining of Solis’ many mountains
