Shelekhumbia
Shelekhumbia encompasses the lands of the Bay of Shelekhumbia and the lands along the Leh-Shelekhumbis River. The term is historic and cultural, not political. The modern government of these lands is the Sultanate of Beph-Themesh.
Shelekhumbia is a semi-arid to arid region traversed by the waters of the Leh-Shelekhumbis River. It was inhabited in ancient times by the Shelekhumbi people. Later, Thammazite Tribes migrated from southern Weshif into the land.

- Nomadic Invasions from Weshif
The City-State period ends in early fifth millennium with the invasion of the Thammazite Tribes out of Weshif. These desert nomads push the Esabdalite people, already living in Weshif into Shelekhumbia. The Shelekhumbians resettle the Esabdalites into Yephalah. They became a buffer state against the incursions of the Adamantine Giants who also invaded from the east during this tumultuous period.
