The planet has major season changes and a brutal winter. During the winter the storms make travel difficult and create major tropical storms during the summer. There are 3 huge islands about equal distance apart around the equator. Each island is approximately the same size (approximately 2,720 km or 1,700 miles wide) with mountainous coastlines that blunt the worst of most storms. The interior of all three islands is basically flat and has been converted to farm land. | The planet has major season changes and a brutal winter.

===Polar Ice Caps=== | |||
Their are two large polar ice cap regions that are generally avoided. The glacial ice in these regions is thought to be over 500 meters thick at the polar caps. The ice covers an area approximately 2,400 km or 1,500 miles wide. | |||
Strangely enough with the advance of technology all 3 nations have discovered that at the center of the north polar cap is a huge valley in the glacial ice. In this region which is about 8 km or 5 miles wide the rocky ground is totally exposed. | |||
It can only be approached by air. This area is treated as neutral ground and no combat is conducted here. In fact all 3 nations maintain a small colony of diplomatic and scientific personel here. This area is refered to as [[Dos'vdana]]. | |||
