Geography

The Climate of Krenya

Due to differences in latitude and the marked variety in  topographical relief, Krenya's climate tends to vary considerably for each region. During the winter or dry season, extending roughly from November to April, the monsoon  winds usually blow from the northeast along the shauntevile coast and across the Laventine Gulf, picking up considerable moisture. The average annual temperature is generally lower in the plains than in the hills, especially in Northern Krenya compared to the south. Temperatures vary less in the southern plains around Yeltar Delta, ranging from between 21 and 35 °C (69.8 and 95.0 °F) over the year. In Zozava and the surrounding areas of the Koverlin Delta, the temperatures are much lower between 15 and 33 °C (59.0 and 91.4 °F). Seasonal variations in the mountains, plateaus, and the northernmost areas are much more dramatic, with temperatures varying from 3 °C (37.4 °F) in December and January to 37 °C (98.6 °F) in July and August. Krenya receives high rates of precipitation in the form of rainfall with an average amount from 1,500 mm (59 in) to 2,000 mm (79 in) during the monsoon seasons; this doesnt often causes flooding, Due to the advanced drainage systems. The country is affected by tropical depressions, tropical storms and typhoons from the Southern seas.

Geography of Krenya

Krenya is divided into coastal lowlands, the Hills of the  Brandes Range, and extensive forests. Comprising five relatively flat plateaus of  basalt soil, the highlands account for 16% of the country's arable land and 22% of its total forested land. The soil in much of the southern part of Krenya is relatively low in nutrients as a result of high cultivation. Few minor earthquakes  have been recorded in the past. Most have occurred near the Eastern Krenyan border in the Fiefdoms of Mulsburg, Nenaheim and  Zozavan Royal administrative region, while some have been recorded offshore of the central part of the country. The northern part of the country consists mostly of highlands and the Cresin Delta which is located in the Fiefdom of Helensburg, is the highest mountain in Krenya, standing 3,143 m (10,312 ft) high. From north to south Krenya, the country also has  two islands. Selenzia is the larger one. The Helenin Cave is considered the largest known cave passage in the world since its discovery in 2012. The Reverin Lake and Salrin River are the largest lake and longest river in the country.

Culture of Krenya

Architecture and arts

The Architecture of krenya, has developed, over several centuries of both foreign and domestic rule, which make the current krenyan buildings look like the way they look, And the renowned stone and brick buildings, that adorn the cities of gorainz and zozava, are also the result of this.

The first glimpses of modern Krenyan architecture began in the early 2nd century BCE, when the tribal groups started building the first major cities across mainland krenya, the first major buildings were mostly doubled storyied mud and brick layered houses which had a system of easier ventilation and drainage system, and made the krenyans able to advance further than most of the other contemporary kingdoms and duchies surrounding them.

The tribes eventually due to bronze and iron trades developed into city states and builted their own castles and cities, which were protected by 2-3 layered stone walls, these often proved useful against the other barbarian tribes and other technologically inferior city states which invaded the cities. Though these cities were built in early ages, the designs of the cities were one of the first ones to have proper drainage and design managements,

Later on, the city states either conquered one another or unified by intermarrying and extending bloodlines into forming fiefdoms, which covered vast land areas, most of them were located in the western areas of modern day krenya, besides shaunteville, however in the east the house of kren, conquered huge swaths of land, and ruled over most of it until the early 600's, the architectural designs during this period saw increasing number of statues and symbols being engraved into religious buildings and places as a way of symbolizing the alligience of the specific fiefdoms and houses to god.

The next advancement at the krenyan architectural style came at the time of the qazhshavan invasion of krenya in the 600's and the 700's when krenya was plundered and was occupied mostly by the various qazhshavan kingdoms, and the following seven centuries long qazhlaw upon krenya.The next advancement at the krenyan architectural style came at the time of the qazhshavan invasion of krenya in the 600's and the 700's when krenya was plundered and was occupied mostly by the various qazhshavan kingdoms, and the following seven centuries long qazhlaw upon krenya, during this period, krenya saw a rapid influx of kankadian people into krenyan territory as a way to settle into their newly conquered land, this also meant that they built several mokhavic versioned palaces, government buildings and villages across the conquered territories.

The main buildings were mainly religious ones, which were of their traditional beliefs, and also cultural symbols which are still maintained to this day, the qazhshavan rule over krenya or as its known by the locals, the qazhlaw, helped to develop mokhavic culturism over krenya and its population in the coming years.

In the southern portions where, the protesians or in kental, the povanonic people were settled for several years, also had some varying levels of architectural designs which helped to shape the modern day cultural symbolism of krenya, the protesians mainly had huge cathedrals built over certain villages, with varying levels of dome shaped government and royal buildings, the regular buildings also followed the dome pattern somewhat, which made them somewhat echoable when visited and created noise from the inside, these areas remained under protesian control until the late 1530's when the last protesian forces were scathed off from krenya and the city of "Zozava" was conquered after a brutal 250 day long seige of the city perimeters.

After the conquests, A series of assimilation of the Kental i.e Pozavonnac architecture was started, when the Krenyans mixed their style of buildings i.e pillar styed architecture with that of the more dome styled architecture of the pozanovac's.

Though it was initally successful, it went down as time moved on, several people regarded themselves to be more pozanovac and Kentalian than krenyan, and by the 1600's, the policy of assimilating pozanovacs into the Krenyan culture was nearly abandoned, with very mixed series of both successes and failures achieved,

By the early 18th century, krenya also started to expand its style of architecture into the other parts of Anteria, most notably into, its former colonies, though these styles of architecture also had a touch of their own native designs, such as the joint pillar-minaret styled designs of Abjekistan, or the triangle shaped roof- designs that were added to the gothic styled architecture of Blechingia. These also added a sense of assimilation of its colonial subjects into Krenya,

Significant progresses in architectural designs were made in mainland krenya too, in the early 17th to early 19th century when, the castles were being modified to be more like modern day bungalows with sloped roofs and a basic three storyed design thats followed in the western and northern parts of the nation till to this date.

In the South a more, Pozanovac styled architectural style is followed with the Royal parliament being an example of that, The use of the dome shaped roofs is seen in the official buildings, in the cities of Zozava and Duren, which were deeply influenced by the kentalians in the 12th-16th centuries, with there being museums in zozava that generally record the styles of architecture that existed in the pre-unification period.

After the 19th Century, no more major changes took place in the architectural history of Krenya, with the basic pillar and dome styled buildings being common in the southern parts of the nation, while the north and western parts of the nation have an expanse of bunglow styled designs due to the comparetively colder climates there.

The city is located on an almost level surface and on very wet soils. As a result, all of the Zozava Metro stations are under the surface, there are deep-level stations.

Vocabulary wise and world-formation wise, Krenyan is almost exclusively Germanic, with little to no Romance influence, unlike Common. Krenyan alphabet has managed to preserve multiple letters, which has been dropped from the Common language in the past:
