The Sea of Aegaeon somtimes called the Huvakian Sea, or simply the Aegaean; is a large, oil rich body of water located in southern Abos. Entirely bordered by the Empire of Huvakia the Aegaean takes its namesake from the imperial capital city Aegaeon. The sea has played an important role in the development of Huvakia both industrialy and culturaly. The sea Provided abundant sources of fish allowing population centers to develop quickly. Trade between these early settlements was routine, as soon as boats larger than traditional skiffs were common. Following the industrial revolution the Aegaean would further soldify its role as the beating heart of Huvakia when early searches indicated an oil field encompassing the entirety of the sea. The large oil deposits found beneath the waves of the sea were the cause of a sudden and widespread boom in many areas of Huvakian industry. Numerous construction projects around the nation such as the Celestial Spire are a direct reault of the find. While Huvakian oil now has more competitors abroad the Aegaean remains a large source of revenue for Prometheus Imperial Power both in domestic sales, and exports. The Aegaean has one major inflow of fresh water from the Bay of Emperors which is fed from two rivers of mountain water runoff. Due to the its importance to the Imperial economy the Sea of Aegaeon is one of the most heavily patrolled bodies of water in the world.
