ew Harren sits along the southeastern and eastern coast of [[Cusinaut]], a large peninsular region in [[Crona]], and is predominantly [[Nysdra Sea]] facing. It is one of the most habitable parts of the Nysdra basin and also sits not far from [[New Veltorina]] on the other side of the Nysdra and Northern Approaches. There are two main centers of human habitation within New Harren. The southeastern coast of the country, within the [[Constituent_states_of_New_Harren#New_Harren|Rectory of New Harren]], is heavily settled and urbanized, with new development radiating out from the coast. The second center is the so-called "native belt", a string of cities and heavily urbanized areas which largely run across the country's western border in the country's "middle" running north to south. In addition to these regions, New Harren has a northern {{Wp|exclave}} called the [[Constituent_states_of_New_Harren#Borealia|Province of Borealia]] in the Unnuaq Bay, which is separated from the rest of the country by the [[Chenango Confederacy]].

===Climate===
===Climate===
Much of the country's coastal regions, especially in the southern two thirds of the country, are temperate and suitable for large scale human habitation. The area which encompassed New Harren between the [[War of the Northern Confederation]] and the [[Final War of the Deluge]] exhibit a {{wp|Oceanic_climate#Marine_west_coast_(Cfb)|marine mild winter}} climate. This part of New Harren has year-round cloud cover due to the presence of warm sea currents and western sea breezes. This area receives significant precipitation. The northern third of the country, roughly approximate to the territory of the former [[Nysdra Provisional Republic]] has a {{wp|Subarctic climate|subarctic climate}} with long, cold winters. As a whole, the country has significant vegetation cover, although the diversity of such coverage decreases in the subarctic region to {{wp|conifer}} trees.

===Topography===
===Topography===
Much of New Harren is flat, with gentle rolling hills lowering out towards the [[Nysdra Sea]] where low elevation land has significant human habitation. The country is bordered to the west by highlands which separate it from [[Porfíria]]. The pre-Final War of the Deluge northern border of the country was a riverine system which separated it from the highlands that extend throughout much of central [[Cusinaut]], but following the annexation of the Nysdra Provisional Republic, the northern third of the country is largely comprised of these highlands.

The exclave of Borealia, meanwhile, is very hilly, and most of the Province is significantly elevated with a sharp drop-off into the Unnuaq Bay.
