Zephasia
Zephasia is the great stretches of land in the tropics in southernmost Asdauria to the northernmost portion of Bahuna. The equator passes through the southern portion of Zephasia which is part of Bahuna. This portion is sometimes called 'Old Zephasia.' The northern portion of Zephasia comprises most of the Shanjari Empire. The great city of Benjalay and her ruler are suzerain, officially recognizing the sovereignty of the Caliphate of Shanjahar, but retaining all practical power to itself. Cities north of Benjalay are subject to the Caliph. South of Benjalay are the independent principalities of Old Zephasia, including Mithragutha, Tamjib, Githva Tancuco, Temutmatha, Thrattanzure, Ramu-Derra, Rayootipurt, Zaaltuumtl, and Omedzure. Ishdind is culturally part of Zephasia as well.
Anciently Zephasia was settled by the ancestors of the Zephasian People. In the early middle ages, Dagaithi tribesmen immigrated and settled the semi-tropical lands to the north of Zephasia, but south of the Sahimb. The Dagaithi gain converts to the Imzaha Religion and conquered many cities in northern Zephasia, but failed to conquer Benjalay.
