I divided the Harperland realm into three regions:
Wealthy Facland, Poor Stuudland/Flunk, and Intermediate
Grads/Administraland. Wealthy Facland is a developed region [see measures]
with significant mineral wealth [see harmins].
It is comprised of heavily populated [see measures]
plains and low hills [see harphys2]
with a temperate climate [see harclim].
It has a fairly homogeneous population with most speaking
Faculite [see harlang]
and practicing the religion of Faculism [see harrelig].
Poor Stuudland/Flunk is the poorest regions [see measures].
Most people speak the Studd language and practice a Lamic
religion.
Intermediate Grads/Administraland has a middle income economy [see measures] and many speak the Admin language and practice the Yid religion..
ANOTHER POSSIBLE ANSWER: One could dividethe Harperland realm into two regions:
Facland and Eastern Harperland. Facland is a developed region [see measures]
with significant mineral wealth [see harmins].
It is comprised of heavily populated [see measures]
plains and low hills [see harphys2]
with a temperate climate [see harclim].
It has a fairly homogeneous population with most speaking
Faculite [see harlang]
and practicing the religion of Faculism [see harrelig].
Eastern Harperland is a more diverse region, physically [see
harphys2],
culturally [see harlang],
and economically [see measures].
Yet, their Lamic religions [see harrelig]
provide a good rationale for combining these four countries into the
same region. All four are also significantly poorer than Facland
[see measures].
