The Insular Geography comprises the Unnuaq Chain, which prior to 2030 was an overseas territory of [[Urcea]]. The Chain is comprised of three islands which sit immediately to the north of the polar circle and Urban Geography. The Insular Geography is almost entirely comprised of tundra and is otherwise unremarkable in terms of climate and topography; the three islands are all somewhat elevated off of sea level with sheer rock faces on most sides and a few gradual sloping regions where historic human settlement occurred. | The Insular Geography comprises the Unnuaq Chain, which prior to 2030 was an overseas territory of [[Urcea]].
