=== Buryatia ===
=== Buryatia ===
Buryatia is a Canton located on the western coast of Norlund. It has a population of 3 citizens and is centered around the town of Dubrovnik. Due to its rather isolationist nature in the past, it remains unconnected to major federal infrastructure, but that is a subject to change in the close future. It is currently inactive and placed under protection.

=== Drengrfold ===
=== Drengrfold ===
Drengrfold is the newest Canton in Norlund. Drengrfold is focused on the settlemenst of Port Lokkarme and Gwenyth. With a population of 4 as of the last census, Drengrfold surpasses several of the stagnant cantons, and is looking to be a new center of development. Formed out of the former territory of Northreach (now Midreach), Drengrfold is isolated from the federal infrastructure network, including rail and road. However, this will change once the rail boom reaches Kannin, where a line will then be routed to Port Lokkarme.

Formed out of the former territory of Northreach (later Midreach), Drengrfold was initially isolated from the federal infrastructure network, though it was later connected with roads going through the various valleys in northern Norlund.

==== The Southwest Territory ====
==== The Southwest Territory ====
The Western Territories are the region of Norlund on the west coast that have not yet been fully settled or developed. Despite this, there has been some development, namely the Western Bell Tower, and the Zexenia/Norlund Friendship Bridge. The Western Territories has a mostly cool climate, with Boreal Forest and Mountains dominating the geography, along with Cold Steppe on the southern border with Savagard.
The Western Territories is the region of Norlund on the west coast that has throughout its history been relatively uninhabitet. There has historically been several attempts to settle the area, namely the Western Bell Tower, and the Zexenia/Norlund Friendship Bridge and Saint Peter. The Western Territories has a mostly cool climate, with Boreal Forest and Mountains dominating the geography, along with Cold Steppe on the southern border with Yggdrasil.


==== The Midreach Territory ====
==== The Midreach Territory ====
The Midreach Territory encompasses the entirety of the northern peninsula. Composed of steep cliffs, tall mountains, and thick glaciers, the Midreach territory is near-uninhabited, and near uninhabitable, as little grows in what little hardy soil there is. Despite this, the settlement of Paris is an exception to the rule. A small commune founded by Rainofpain125, Paris has been a controversial settlement due to their leader's extreme political beliefs. While Paris had now since fallen to disrepair after Rain's departure from Norlund, it has since been in the process of rebuilding under two newfriends MaiNai and MadBaronofUrga, now calling it Port Lohikäärme, or Kärme for short. This settlement has since been moved to the Canton of Drengrfold, along with Gwenyth. As a result, Midreach had its name changed from Northreach, in order to more accurately depict its geographic position. In addition, Irithyll Fortress is a major landmark. Nestled between the glaciers, Irithyll is meant to be a fallback point should invasion drive the government out of Kannin. Built by RobM, it has since fallen into disrepair. Now it serves as a monument to the Norlish people, honouring RobM, it is also of importance to the church due to RobM's death in the crusade against the Ez2crew. Irithyll hosts a small church in the center of it.

Following negotiations between Norlund and Yggdrasil during The [[Great War]], the territory of Norvansgard rejoined Norlund, although not as a Canton due to lack of permanent residents. It is currently a territory with the old viking long house being under direct federal control, like how Kannin castle and Irithyll are managed currently.
