The Province of Haibnelann is an administrative region within [[Faneria]], bordering [[Lyukquar]] and [[Connsmonan]] to the east, [[Vrael]] to the west, the [[Kilikas Sea]] to the north, and [[Gleathan]] and [[Fhainnholdt]] to the south. it is inhabited by roughly eighteen million people and is the largest [[Administrative Divisions of Faneria|Province]] in Faneria by landmass.

The region's terrain, similarly to Lyukquar, is divided between a low-lying belt of grasslands and occasional swamps along the coast and the incredibly wide [[Deamhainn]] mountains, though Haibnelann's borders extend considerably further into the mountain range and its coastal flats are much more constricted.

The three major watersheds of the province are the Haibne River, the Gheal (White) River, and the Feannaig (Crow) River basins. Of these, the Haibne and Gheal are by far more important, and their riverbanks house most of the province's major settlements. | ||

Raw materials mining, timber cutting, and smaller fishing, manufacturing, and services industries form the majority of the area's economic strength, though the local economy is relatively diverse unlike its sister province Lyukquar. Iron, copper, zinc, tin, and bauxite make up most of the valuable materials mined in the area, but stonecutting for export, as well as peat and a small but growing set of nickel veins make the Haibnelann branch of the Deamhainn ranges particularly valuable to industrial production. This wealth was the original reason for granting such a wide tract to the provincial government to begin with, encouraging development of the area and drawing immigrants from the Vandarch Basin; in previous centuries, the area was more sparsely inhabited and poorly developed. | Raw materials mining, timber cutting, and smaller fishing, manufacturing, and services industries form the majority of the area's economic strength, though the local economy is relatively diverse unlike its sister province Lyukquar.

Haibnelann is predominantly Catholic in spite of sizeable pagan and irreligious minorities, with a slight decrease in religiosity due to increased immigration from the south. The province is roughly four-fifths ethnic Fhainn with Coscivian and related Gaelic minorities, which largely were intermarried with Fhainnin peoples prior to the land's integration into the Kingdom of the Fhainn. The local tongue is effectively indistinguishable from common Fhasen and was reclassified as a dialect rather than a separate language in 1714. | Haibnelann is predominantly Catholic in spite of sizeable pagan and irreligious minorities, with a slight decrease in religiosity due to increased immigration from the south.
