 **Samsmard** is a large peninsula located south of the Northern Dividing Range, historically inhabited by the **Ulthur peoples** and currently divided between seven distinct states. The peninsula is characterized by its diverse geography, ranging from coastal lowlands to mountainous highlands, and serves as home to several anthropomorphic species including the cat-like Ulthur races, the diminutive mouse-people of Ibree, and the insect-like Ghoga!. **Samsmard** is a large peninsula located south of the Northern Dividing Range, historically inhabited by the **Ulthur peoples** and currently divided between seven distinct states.

-Samsmard extends southward from the Northern Dividing Range, forming a natural barrier that has historically separated the peninsula from the human kingdoms to the north. The peninsula is bisected by the **Isthmus**, a narrow land bridge that has served as a crucial defensive position and cultural dividing line.+Samsmard extends southward from the Northern Dividing Range, forming a natural barrier that has historically separated the peninsula from the human kingdoms to the north. It is a varied land, with forests and jungles found along the Southern and Northwestern coasts, vast plains in the West and rugged deserts and wastelands throughout. 
  
-The western regions of Samsmard feature rolling hills and fertile valleys, while the eastern territories are characterized by more rugged terrain including extensive mountain ranges and desert regions. The **Central Highlands** contain the secluded mountain kingdom of Ibree, tucked away in nearly inaccessible peaks that have allowed its inhabitants to maintain their independence throughout the region's tumultuous history.+Samsmard's most distinctive feature are its mountains. Though rarely topping 8,000 feet, the ranges are craggy, barren and ever-present: if not below one's feet, then on the horizon. The Great White Range runs, more-or-less, through the entirety of Samsmard, dividing it into North and South portions. The Great White is recognized as different sub-ranges along its path including the [[blank]] in the west and the [[blank_two]] and [[blank_three]] in the east.

 +The peninsula is bisected by a northerly Inland Sea; a large and meandering bay to the south and in the middle  stands the **Isthmus**, a narrow land bridge that has served as a crucial defensive position, cultural crossroads and in "modern times," independent trade capital.  
 + 
 +The western half of Samsmard, called //[[Dick Shit]]//, is characterized by its relative abundance of rolling hills, fertile plains and lush forests. These lay inland from the northern and southern coasts, and along the western shore of the inland sea. Despite these, there are still vast tracts of wasteland and desert. The [[Plarksouge Squege]] occupies much of the southwest of Dick Shit, where more than climate and geology account for the dearth of life. Lying north of the Great Whites, The Northern Dry is only marginally more hospitable, but is vastly larger than its southern counterpart.

 The southern central region consists primarily of barren desert, while the eastern coastline is dominated by forests and extensive wetlands. The northern and western portions of the eastern territories feature predominantly mountainous terrain interspersed with desert areas. The southern central region consists primarily of barren desert, while the eastern coastline is dominated by forests and extensive wetlands.

 Hidden within the Central Highlands lies the small kingdom of **Ibree**, inhabited by the **Bree**—mouse-people who stand less than a quarter the height of typical humans or Ulthur. Their remote mountain stronghold has largely protected them from the conflicts that have shaped the rest of Samsmard. Hidden within the Central Highlands lies the small kingdom of **Ibree**, inhabited by the **Bree**—mouse-people who stand less than a quarter the height of typical humans or Ulthur.
