Arona: Difference between revisions

==Geography==

Arona sits in the far northern portion of [[Vallos]] on its west coast. The country, and northern Vallos in general, straddle the {{wp|equator}}, with Arona being just south of the equator. Accordingly, Arona's climate is tropical and experiences warm to hot temperatures throughout the year. Additionally, most of Arona is extremely humid, with {{wp|rainforests}} covering the center portion of the country.  

Arona is generally divided into three geographic regions; its southwestern coastal flatlands, its central valley region, and its eastern highlands. The southwestern coastal region is predominantly characterized by urban development, and Toucari, along with other major cities, dot the coast, and some suburban development stretches out northward from the coast. A majority of Aronese people live in the coastal plain. Further north, in the center of the country, the coastal plain is separated from the rest of the country by the Colibir Mountains, the tallest in Arona. North of the Colibir is the extremely lush and low-lying Bara Valley, which features significant rainforest coverage and relatively little human use. Just north of the Bara are the eastern highlands region, suitable for farming and other activities. The highlands gradually slope upward towards the Maru Mountains, which partly establish Arona's borders with [[Equatorial Ostiecia]].
