The Province of Vanyaael, commonly known as Vanyaael, is a coastal exclave and imperial province of Amador in Gholgoth bordered by the western Alfarian Sea to the north, and bordered by Seclya on the east, south, and west sides of its territory. Vanyaeel was once an independent elven kingdom that existed for several millennia, but was formally inducted into Amador following the Vanyaaeli Collapse in 403 AD. The capital and largest city in Vanyaeel is Tir Ellis
Vanyaael is known for its its extensive forests, including the Forest of Alinor, home to the largest concentration of Alfar Godswood trees in the world. It is governed by the Archon Saria Gilhana, an Vanyaaeli noble of the Great House of Gilhana. As with its mainland motherland, Vanyaael is ruled by the Alfar, with theVanyaaeli variant being its most prominent population, though cohabitation with non-human species is prevalent. Vanyaael swears subservience to the reigning monarch of Amador, Maeralya Amador.
Vanyaael is a regional center for nature tourism, architecture, and is home to the largest naval base in the Imperium, Salenriel Naval Base in Tir Nala. It is highly developed, possessing a high nominal GDP per capita and low economic inequality. It is known for its reusable energy programs and vibrant coastal sea life.
Vanyaael is the primary nexus for imperial relations between Amador and Seclya and also served as the staging point of Amador's invasion of the Hakulic-held areas of Seclya in the War of the Leaves, which saw the importance of the province in establishing the Elven Pact.

Vanyaael's population is largely clustered along the coast in large metropolises, though there still remains sizable settlements in the central plains and along the Seclyai border.
