The sub-archipelago comprises just over 73,270.76km<sup>2</sup> in land area. Being a nation that solely consists of islands, Ardmore's geography is almost entirely just above sea level, with the sole exception being on Great Ardmore which has Ardmore's only mountain and highest point [[Mount Mac Shuibhne]], named in honor of Ardmore's first post-Civil War leader [[Ardghar Mac Shuibhne]]. Asides from being home to Ardmore's only mountain, Great Ardmore is home to a few hills which are presently unnamed due to their lack of notability compared to Mount Mac Shuibhne. None of the peripheral islands have any hills or mountains that are of note. | The sub-archipelago comprises just over 73,270.76km<sup>2</sup> in land area.

===Climate=== | |||
Being an insular nation in the northern hemisphere within the northern section of the tropics, Ardmore's climate is relatively temperate and mild. {{wp|Solar seasons}} are not as assertive as they would be outside of the tropics, but are comparatively more noticeable than they would be in countries that are much closer to the Equator. As much of the country is not too far from a coastal area, this further ensures that the average temperatures throughout the country are milder and more temperate. Indeed, winter temperatures are for the most part mild and ranging from around 0°C to 10°C with little snowfall while summer temperatures generally range from approximately 18°C to 25°C. The sole exception to the overall climate of Ardmore is [[Mount Mac Shuibhne]] and its surrounding area which experiences temperatures on average as low as -5°C as well as a greater chance of snowfall. The overall {{wp|air pollution}} in Ardmore is kept low through the government's efforts at promoting clean, renewable energy; Ardmori air quality is among the highest in Levantia as a result. | |||
