The islands all together make Esonice's total land area 354,835km2 of which less than 30-50% is mountainous. Because of this abundance of usable land and Esonice's relatively small population - this gives the nation a population density of 95 people per square kilometre.

Esonice (Esonian: Esonya) offically the Serene Kingdom of Esonice (Esonian: TBA) is a high income island nation located in Western Alharu - surrounded by the Tiauhai Sea to the west, the Oriental Ocean to the north, and the Esonian Straits to the east. Esonice doesn't border any nation on land, but on its maritime borders its neighbours are the Andallan puppet state of Giokto to the east, and the Commonwealth of Andalla to the west. Esonice is a relatively mountainous nation, but still has an abundance of land available due to its low population density; covering approximately 354,835km2 with a population density of less than 100 people per square kilometre. The nation is known as large producer of unique varieties of tea and chocolate that can only be found on its islands. Many gemstones can also be found such as pearls in the sea; and emeralds, fluorite and various quartz such as rose quartz in the mountains of Esonice.

Geography

The majority of Esonice's inhabitants coincide on the island of ---; which is Esonice's biggest and most populace island. And the 2 smaller islands of --- and ---. But Esonice has appromixately --- islands in total, the majority of which don't have permanent residence. The islands are also globally renowned for their heart shape. The islands all together make Esonice's total land area 354,835km2 of which less than 30-50% is mountainous. Because of this abundance of usable land and Esonice's relatively small population - this gives the nation a population density of 95 people per square kilometre. And there is even a greater abundance of land as majority of the population reside in 3 major cities. This makes Esonice one of the least densely populated developed nation in the wurld. This makes Esonice's topographic diverse as parts of the nation range from mountainous and hilly to relatively flat and arable valleys: including Esonice's famous flower valleys, especially around the coasts. Esonice's largest lake is Lake Gamari, a very popular destination for tourists because of its turquoise colour and almost pristine condition; and also historical monuments such as the Floating Temple of Gamari.

Because of Esonice being so close to an intersection (which helped in the formation of the islands) between three tectonic plates going in different directions. It makes the area prone to regular earthquakes and volcanic activity, which can result in tsunamis, which are not uncommon to the islands. Esonice has 96 active volcanoes, the majority of which can be found in the eastern and central parts of the country. 3 volcanoes in particular are considered dangerous and have repeatedly caused misfortune in the past 4000 years, though they rarely explode. But when they do they often leave devastating effects. One major catastrophic event in particular happened during the 7th century in 687 AD when the Kaisōji volcano; one of the 3 dangerous volcanoes, in the --- region caused a massive eurthquake which was followed by a devastating tsunami from the Tiauhai sea, this event is believed to have killed from 15% to 25% of the population on the Western side of Esonice at the time. This event was the most catastrophic natural disaster in Esonian history to date and was called The Mora Tsunami or Monster Tsunami. Eurthquakes and volcanic explosions in Esonice occur several times during each century the majority of which aren't as or even greatly destructive, and often leave minimal damage such as the 2002 Esonyaveli eurthquake which left the city with some damages and a fallen skyscraper. A fun thing to note that because of this volcanic activity Esonice often gets nicknamed "The beating heart" compared to Esonice's epithet "The land of a thousand flowers".

Biodiversity

Baby Kamakora Tigers

Esonice's fauna and flora; due to its isolation by the sea and the great Alharan desert has many unique species and plants that can be found on the islands of Esonice. Many of which arrived during the ice ages. This includes animal species like the big cat Kamakora Tigers; which are also the national animal of Esonice and roam many parts of the nation, including its endangered cousin, --- Tigers which reside in the Eastern rainforests and for centuries have been subject to foreign and local illegal hunting activities. Also the Esonian Sukoshirō Rabbits which can be found in many valleys of Esonice. Esonice's Eastern rainforests especially are known for their biodiversity.

Esonice also has quite a few reptile species. Mammalian species such as the small Katō-i monkey and --- raccoon. Also many bird species. A large government program has been put in place, converting many important areas of wildlife into nature reserves during the 80s and 90s in an attempt to end destruction of wildlife and illegal activities such as hunting. Also many institutions have been formed to help endangered species on the islands. Many local authorities also started their own programs and regulations in an attempt to limit environmental damage.
