Sea of Nordska: Difference between revisions

The '''Sea of Nordska''' lies between eastern Levantia and the arctic, just north of [[Fiannria]]. It is connected to the [[Kilikas Sea]] through the [[Vithin Straits]] and the [[Noborean Passage]]. Together with the [[Kilikas Sea]] it serves as a pass-through for waters from the [[Levantine Ocean]] to the [[Coscivian Sea]]. The sea is bound by the Arctic in the north and [[Levantia]] in the south. During the winter months much of the seas coastlines freeze over, inhibiting trade for part of the year. On the other hand, the sea is known to be quite calm for much the rest of the year. This has allowed it to become a major fishery for the nations surrounding the sea for most civilizations settled the region. Because of the mountains separating the northernmost region of [[Ultmar]] from the Levantian core regions, control of the sea has been vital for any trade, piracy or invasions in towards or out from [[Levantias crown]]. In more modern times the Sea has become an important trade lane for freight, especially targeted at delivering between Alshar and the Vandarch.
