The object of war to Scipio Bellorum. The country is barbaric, strong willed, and improvising. The people of the Icemark use everything available to aid their cause and/or need. Implied to be the equivalent of a Scandinavian country, or the Vikings if they had survived, due to the fact when warriors die they are sent to Valhalla, a vital part in Viking myth.

**__Province Of Hypolita__** The land given to the Hypolitan people in the north of the Icemark following a war with the Icemark. Home of a matriarchal society of warriors who dress in bright colours. They originally came from the southern continent before being driven out by a great army, possibly the early Polypontians. Their society appears to be based around the Amazons of Greek myth.

**__The Polypontus__** A huge Empire, spanning over several continents. The main drive of such success is the Polypontian army, an equally expansive army of loyal soldiers, driven constantly to fight and fight alone. Implied to be the equivalent of The Roman Empire if it had survived, most especially based on their traditional speech as they enter enemy lands. As the Romans did, they proclaim "veni, vidi, vici", or "I came, I saw, I conquered". It appears to be based on a Medieval Roman Empire if it lasted to around the 13th to 14th centuries.

**__The-Land-Of-The-Ghosts__** A dark, Arctic wasteland. Ruled by their Vampiric Majesties. The land is inhabited by the more strange species, Namely the Wolf-Folk, Vampires, Zombies, Ghosts, gaint snowy olws,and rock trolls.

**__The Hub of the World__** Even farther north than the Land-of-the-Ghosts and beyond the northern ice sheets, this is home to the giant Snow Leopards. *This page, along with the Google Earth Map, was done by Thomas.
