Gorum minor is the large landmass southeast of middle gorum. It shares the planets equator with the massive Cradled Jungle and has the richest farmlands and forests. The subcontinent is populated with roughly 35 small nations. There is always some small land-grab wars between several of these minor nations, but the powerful Kerrichian Union unites them to a large enough extent. The extent being to keep Munstria in check. The Cradled Jungle is magically massive. Its always been left alone by humanoids, the exception being orcs. Orcs have settled much of the northwest jungle and have established massive trade routes all across the north jungle, if only so these Orc pioneers could stay in good supply of magical ash. The Cradled jungle has two massive mountains in its southeast called the Dragon Peaks. They are host to all manor of winged lizards. Occasionally these beast fly as far east as the Ense Isles for a meal. The Ense Isles are populated by a seafaring people are dragonslayers and are loyal to their big brother Kerrich. These Islands are ruled by merchant elite, and are somewhat lawless, although the trade winds of the warmer waters afford for expensive security. As such a mercenary can always find work in Ense Isles and Kerrich. The nations of the Kerrichian union elect an emperor who commands the unions army. Since the War of Munstrian Hostility, this army has been solely used to counter any nation within the union seeking to conquer too many of their neighbors, but these nations skirmish for the lush fields and forests all the same. The Massive Island of Jubilee has rolling green hills and fields and jagged cliffs. Jubilee contains Gourms only permanent Halfing settlements. The island is a relatively happy, peaceful place, attributed to its low human population. Halfings typically are nomadic throughout Gorum and only few of them believe the legend that Jubilee is their ancestral home ground.
