Language: None.
Coinage: None.
Taxes: None.
Government Type: None, claimed by the Alphatian Empire.
Industries: Lost artifacts, lost lore.

Flora and Fauna: Some sea creatures venture in or near the sunken continent, and some probably inhabit it. Undead abound. Remnants of surface flora and fauna are decaying, and are gradually replaced by their sea counterparts: algae, fish, squids, aquatic beholders.

Last Year's Events: Aquas was the major explorer of the sunken continent, with plans to
eventually establish new domed cities over the sunken cities, but it ran into
the new inhabitants of Alphatia: undead by the thousands. A few of these new denizens, the Alphadon,
greeted the Alphatians with caution, but the Aquans were also savagely attacked
by seemingly unending hordes of ghouls and other monstrosities.
