Anglei: Difference between revisions

Anglei occupies a roughly "L"-shaped position between [[Urcea]], [[Yonderre]], and [[Hollona and Diorisia]] and has two primary sections, one of which running approximately north to south between Yonderre and the Vandarch Republic and one of which running east to west between Urcea and Yonderre. The predominant geographical feature of the country is [[Carolina-Grand_Canal#Lake_Roseney|Lake Roseney]], which bisects northern and western Anglei and historically served as a major commercial center as well as the southern terminus of the [[Anglasweorc]]. The nation's borders are primarily riverine and is bounded by the [[Carolina-Grand Canal]] and its associated rivers to the west.

The divided Angle duchies underwent a major population boom in the late 18th century, and by the 1780s the population of the area had recovered to its pre-[[Nordmontaine War]] levels. Long subject of [[Ænglophobia]], the Angle duchies also underwent an increase of political relevance during the late 18th and 19th centuries. They collaborated closely with [[Urcea]] on the construction of the [[Carolina-Grand Canal]], which economically rejuvenated the area, especially around [[Carolina-Grand_Canal#Lake_Roseney|Lake Roseney]], which became a main thoroughfare for the Canal. As a result of the Canal, the Lake area became the most densely populated in Anglei as early industrial cities were established and grew on its shores.
