Arzaqa, officially the Federal Republic of Arzaqa, is a country located in North Thrismari, on the planet Anteria. It is bordered by Ghashir to the north, the Deserts of Thrismari to the south and east and the Anchor Lake to the east.

Geography and Climate

Geographic features

Arzaqa is a relatively flat country ; The north is irrigated by lots of rivers and has an immense flood plain called the Isiya flood plain, derived from the name of the river Isiya (Wadi Isiya ; وادي عيسية), itself derived from the city of Isiya, in the middle of the plain and crossed by the river. The south is more hilly, with the highest located in the southwest and called the Saqir hills. The coast is also very flat, with some areas of the city of Nazarab located under sea level.   The lowest point of Arzaqa is located near the village of Jalu', at 10 meters under sea level in the Isiya flood plain, while the highest is the Saqir hill (Jabal Saqir) at 701 meters above sea level.

Climate

Arzaqa's climate varies depending of the location in the country ; The north has a tropical savanna climate, with wet summers and dry winters (Koppen : Aw), while the south is drier and has a hot semi-arid steppe climate (Koppen : BSh). Due to the lack of hills, desertification is a challenge for the country, and sandstorms can occur at the very south of Arzaqa. The variation of climate creates a north-south divide.
