Maritime expeditions began some time in the late-15th century, though these were seemingly initially unsuccessful. No Cusinautic Indigenous communities exist outside of New Inverleith and New Kaigwa, and the waters freezing over for half of the year prevented both Wacîwaskiy and Oskaigwa from developing significant maritime capabilities. Fishing villages did pop up along the coast of New Inverleith however, with prominent settlements like Natakam and Mistikowaskîy at the tip of the eastern peninsula and along the western shore near the Ardrades respectively. These settlements were able to develop more independently than Wacîwaskiy and Oskaigwa due to the presence of various pines in the southern lands. Natakam and Mistikowaskîy grew in population significantly quicker than Oskaigwa and Wacîwaskiy, and the entirety of Brumalea soon numbered 100,000 Algosh, concentrated in the Brumal Mountains and along the coast of New Inverleith. This population growth culminated in the Mistikowaskîy and Natakam both establishing independent chiefdoms, while the northern settlements remained connected to the trans-polar trade route but unorganized. Natakam was able to successfully reach all of the inner Ardrades by the turn of the 14th century and establish multiple fishing communities on the islands. The communities organized into the Natakam Nation, and quickly produced their explorers as their maritime successes numbered greater than their failures. Though not settled in significant numbers, the Cusinautic Indigenous people were able to reach the outer Ardrades and had made attempts to chart the coastline of the Brumal Domains. The latest ship found along the coast of Brumalea dates back to 1540 CE, with no other indigenous wrecks found near shore. Oral storytellers from the Natakam Nation proport exploration abruptly stopping due to the disappearance of Matunaagd Waban, he who fights the east wind. Traces of his voyage to the Inver Straits of King Ewan II Bay have been found such as temporary settlements dating to the time of his voyage, but where he and his crew departed to next is a mystery. No Natakam explorer had ever ventured very far from the Brumal mainland, so it is unlikely Waban made it to any of the Levantine Ocean islands. Dive teams from New Dunaird have scoured the ocean floor in hope of finding Waban's wreck, but have had no such luck to date.

The nations of Natakam, Mistikowaskîy, Wacîwaskiy, and Oskaigwa exist to this day as self-governing nations within the Brumal Domains. Upon contact with the first Anglo-Carnish explorers the Cusinautic Indigenous peoples had mixed reactions. The Natakam and Mistikowaskîy were quick to welcome the incoming settlers while the Wacîwaskiy and other northern communities were hesitant to become involved with the foreigners. Having fought over the trans-arctic trade routes the Wacîwaskiy refused to interact with the Anglo-Carnish, and stopped settlement of the northern territories to the best of their ability before further Anglo-Carnish settlement began. The Oskaigwa remained uncontacted for some time due to their remoteness compared to the communities of New Inverleith. By the time of contact with the Oskaigwa the Anglo-Carnish had already established a significant foothold on New Inverleith, so the Oskaigwans had received word of their arrival through the trans-arctic trade route years earlier.

== Geography ==
[[File:Brumal topographic map.png|thumb|Topographic map of Brumalea]]
Brumalea is located at the convergence of three separate tectonic plates: the Boreal plate defining the Wâpaskâw range, the Nordskan plate defining the Rose mountain range splitting the western peninsula in two, and the Mystic plate to the east of the Rose mountains. The plates form a tripoint {{wp|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergent_boundary|convergence}} and make the Wâpaskâw and Rose mountains look to be one mountain range. The Wâpaskâw range divides the country apart from its northern Boreal sector while the Rose mountains divide the populated capital region from the coastal communities of Natakam. The western peninsula is home to a magma hotspot underneath the dormant Mystic super-volcano of the Mystika province. The mainland and King Duncan's Land are fed by several large rivers from the various mountains of the country, while the outlying island of the Ardrades and New Dunaird are comparatively low-lying and flat. Oskaigwa and New Holchester are situated far from the core of the country and rely on the more self-sufficient mainland and neighboring [[Caergwynn]] and Faneria.

===Administrative Divisions of Brumalea===
===Administrative Divisions of Brumalea===
Brumalea is divided into 15 provinces and 2 territories. The provinces and territories are all functionally the same, but the two administrative territories exist with more transient borders past the Brumal mountains. As such, an internal border exists between the territories and the northern provinces of Brumalea, as the territories of Brumalea can legally be entered over land without a passport. All 17 administrative divisions are represented by a Premier in the House of Dominions, and these Premiers also serve as the elected leaders of each province. Each province is responsible for various responsibilities delineated to them by the federal government, such as healthcare, education, road maintenance, provincial justice, etc. All 17 provinces and territories have been constitutionally defined since 2004, with the adoption of the country's new constitution.
