Rusana: Difference between revisions

The climate of Rusana varies from tropical to temperate, with semi-arid conditions in the coastal south. There is a monsoon season with frequent flooding due to heavy rainfall, and a dry season with significantly less rainfall. There are four distinct seasons in Rusana: a cool, dry winter from December through February; a hot, dry spring from March through May; the summer rainy season, or southeast monsoon period, from June through September; and the retreating monsoon period of October and November. Rainfall can vary greatly from year to year, and patterns of alternate flooding and drought are not uncommon.  

The geography of Rusana is varied, the east is dominated by the Arik mountain range that begins in the north and extends south all across the [[Daxia]]n border. West of the mountain range, the terrain descends into verdant lowlands and plains with few distinct orographic features. This area is bound to the north by the southern end of the Hongse river that flows from [[Canpei]] and to the south by the Akhdar river, as a result this region is extremely fertile making this the agricultural breadbasket of the country.

A majority of Rusana's population adheres to Islam, approximately 84% of the population answered in the affirmative if they practiced the religion in the last census. Of said percentage approximately 62% belong to the Shia school and 38% belong to the Sunni school. Since the end of the civil war, Islam has been recognized as the official state religion and gets important financial endowments thanks to this status. After Islam, Christianity is the second largest religious group, amounting to roughly 13% of the population. Christianity is predominantly practiced by people belonging to ethnic minority groups such as the Kassar people(who are exclusively Christian), the Tauqi and Yue. Christianity is a recognized minority religion and has protected status in Rusana.
