Sura (Dominaria Supplement)

To the northeast of the Southern Caliphate lies Upper and Lower Sura, the fractured remnants of Greater Sura (or the Northern Calipahte). Greater Sura once stretched from the shores of the Great Bay, or Golden Gulf, south along the alluvial river systems that flow off of the Otarian Plateau. It was a powerful country that thrived on its fertile land, mines, and tri-axis trade: north with the elves and Dhazanti, east with the Otarians and Arcadians, and east with the Calipates of the south and east. For all it's power though, it fell to the Southern Caliph and the Wandering One prior to the generally accepted "Second Campaign of the Wandering One". Now the remnants pay homage to the Grand Caliph by law, although in practice this amounts to very little real influence. Upper and Lower Sura are just too distant, and separated by the Sa'ankar Wastes, to fall under the Caliph's sway. Their current expanse is from the Wastes to their southeast, to the Otarian Plateau, north to the now petrified Kheyr Forest, and east to the Janni's Anvil. Inside this expanse, the oft-warring cities fight to control the fertile alluvial fans and high desert mines alike. Each city is powerful in its own right, and the land here is better than much of the south outside the heartland, but the fractious nature of Sura prevents much real growth. Ruins and farms, desert mines and forest alike lie throughout this land forgotten by the world at large. There is a Calipha in Lower Sura, and a Sultan in Upper Sura, but both are the rulers - in name only - of fractured realms. Change may be on the wind however; the Calipha of Lower Sura has brokered a deal with the Dhazanti in the North, and the Sultan of Upper Sura has made himself a valuable ally to the Emirs of the Emerald Caliphate. If the two decide to marry, as seems likely, and can unify their peoples, which will be a far harder task - Sura looks to be on the rise again.
