'''Saelin''' is a geopolitical region in northern [[Levantia]] centered on the [[Faneria|Fanerian]] semi-exclave of [[Sorhaithe]]. Historically, Saelin has included several subordinate regions, including the Saelish Archipelago, Brevehaithe, Imhrin, and Ogwen, which broadly encompasses the major islands along northeastern Levantia and the adjacent coast as well as inland stretches covering most of the eastern [[Giath Mountains]]. While historical polities based in Saelin have often controlled territories in modern [[Fiannria]], [[Faneria]], and [[Caergwynn]] as far as the banks of the [[Torr River]] to the east and south and the X River to the northwest, Saelin as a recognized region is related directly to the Saelish people living in the Archipelago and along the coast.

Saelin was a major launching point for the [[Third Kin War|Third]] and [[Fourth Kin War|Fourth Kin Wars]] between Faneria and Fiannria, as well as being one of the only border regions in Faneria to never launch a significant separatist uprising on its own.  Fanerian Saelin surrendered without major fighting to the Republicans during the [[Fhainnin Civil War]], but Saelin as a whole suffered instability during the tumult following the [[Fourth Kin War]] and well as some of the heaviest fighting of the [[Second Great War]], first with Fiannrian Saelin being subjected to invasion and then grinding fighting across the Archipelago and later into Fanerian territory as the region became the only appreciable source of fuel for Faneria's war machine.

Post-war, Saelin was rewritten, with the original peace drafts entirely ceding the region to Caergwynn and Fiannria. Fanerian officials offered enormous concessions including the entirety of [[Sioc Siar]] and [[Gathlann]] to retain the most key economic areas of the Archipelago and coastal Brevehaithe, creating the modern exclave province in [[Sorhaithe]]borders of the region. Saelish culture, particularly in Fiannria, has since seen a revival, with increasing toleration of regional autonomy in Fanerian Saelin appearing in recent decades after the success of the [[Transisthmus Peace Proccess]].

Modern Saelin consists of several regions spread across all three regional powers. [[Ascbriden]] and [[Cyrnan]], in Fiannria, consist of Fiannria's continental and Archipelagic holdings in Saelin; Ogwen and [[Gathlann]] are posessed by [[Caergwynn]], and Imhrin and Brevehaithe are the modern island and mainland portions of Saelin represented in the province of [[Sorhaithe]]. Cyrnan and Ogwen are both respective exonyms for the Saelish Archipelago, while Gathlann is a Fanerian construct; historically, Saelin consisted of Brevehaithe and Imhrin, which formed Saelia proper, and Giathlan and Asbrea, which represented the southern and southeastern regions of the country.
