Geography

Ardliss occupies the entirety of the Green Island (Ossorian Gaelic: Oileán Glasa), located in the east of the Ossorian Archipelago, as well as a number of nearby islands. This location means that the kingdom shares a maritime border with the Kingdom of Syllan and the Kingdom of Kenlis to the north and the Kingdom of Dídean and Kingdom of Firada to the west.

The geography of their island consists primarily of fertile lowlands pierced by slow-moving rivers, which combine to make the kingdom the primary breadbasket of the Home Islands.
