Zarajove is a broadly-shaped peninsula delimiting the western end of the Danonan Continent. The name Zarajove derives from the Zarajoveni Tribes who settled the land around 1515 AS, migrating by means of skycraft from southeastern Danona, displacing and absorbing the native Denzahmi people. Today Zarajove is a Sultanate and most Zarajovians are Imzaami. A united Zarajove arose around 1670 when Sultan Tasmagut united the tribes through war and diplomacy. Zarajove is one of the original signatory countries of the 2515 Accord of the Princes of Law.

Asdarography

Zarajove comprises the western peninsular end of the continent of Danona and stretches of land along the north and south coast. The central region of Zarajove is Denzahmi Plateau which consists of a mountainous highland. Northern Zarajove touches the westernmost end of the Pallathantic Sea, its western coast faces the Mathareusan Sea, and its southwestern coast touches the Askonian Ocean. The Sultanate of Zarajove shares boundaries with the Kingdom of Oliblish, the Zanqir Wastes, and the Zanzary Coast. Zarajove shares a border of sorts with Ukurgiy.

Climate and Flora

Zarajove has a largely dry climate. Monsoon rains relieve the land of its dearth in the late summer. In the late winter, clouds from the north dump rains upon the high places of the Denzahmi Plateau in central Zarajove.

Modern-day Zarajove is ruled by a sultan. The Sultanate was restored to Zarajove in the twenty fourth century when Zarajove was liberated from chaos by the Tenth Isbajath which saw the fall of the rule of Süjamaz the Ecstatic. The Sultanate of Zarajove became a dependency of the Gorcorumbese Empire of the Ephysgæes in the late twenty sixth century, but regained independence during the Fourth Geddamin War, 2581.
