Please enter a description:<img src=threadicons/ashdod.gif align=right> The Ashdod Territories cover a mostly mountainous, forested region on the continent of Ur. Its eastern edge is the best defined, bordered by ocean, while its southern tip ends at the Gigi Coast, and it touches Aelfhem to the southwest, Zahirinee to the south, and the Forbidden Land of Shabar and the territory of Saskanar toward the west. <p> While Ashdod is recognized as a nation by some, it has fallen into nearly ceaseless cycles of civil war and infighting between various city-states that comprise its primary population centers. Ashdod, with its mountains, forests and caves, has the highest concentration of the bat-like Eeee on Sinai, and is considered to be their "homeland". <p> Ashdod's traditional capitol is the grand city of Babel, though actual governing power has been wrested from it and gained back several times over. The ruler of Ashdod was long known as the Sabaoth, and was believed to be immortal and several thousand years old. The Sabaoth, however, proved to be not quite so immortal, and was succeeded by his son, Boghaz bar Sabaoth. The tradition of Babel being ruled by the Sabaoth has thus ended, and the ruler of Babel is now known either as the High Prince or High Princess. <p> While Ashdod is a monarchy, governance is far more complex, involving alliances with various warlords and merchants who lead countless factions. Even Babel itself is home to regular warfare to the point where it is simply accepted as the norm of life. <p> Babel was once home to one of the three primary Guild Halls of the Collegia Esoterica, but it was destroyed on New Year's Eve at the advent of the year 6100 RTR by a renegade Rephidimite captain who dropped a "Boomer" weapon on the city. <p> Saskanar and Zahirinee were once part of the Ashdod Territories, but have since seceded and are independent states.
