Etymology
Xtrakva is a compound word of Morytian origin. Xtra can be translated as "that which is being guarded/shielded" and kva translates as "mountain peak".
Geography
The Xtrakvan Archipelago comprised of 20 islands located in the sea of Thevs. Two large islands and 18 small islands. The largest island, called Arghak, is heavily forested and houses most settlements in the country due to its relatively flat terrain. The northern parts of Arghak island are comprised of stony shores, forests and a savanna in the northeast. Towards the center of the island, the forests and fertile grassland subside for rocky terrain. The southern half of Arghak is heavily forested and the very southernmost point of the island is made up of a small jungle. The second largest island, called Kvarjak, is home to the Kvarjak mountain, the highest point of Xtrakva at 160 meters in height.
Additionally, there is the island of Falkisivak to the north which is an autonomous territory jointly owned by Xtrakva and the the Fishdom of Fishland.
Borders and Disputes
Mainland Xtrakva's northern border follows along a river that runs alongside the borders of Fishland and Aylongam with the only exception to this being a single land border, a tiny isthmus, shared with Fishland.
The single border dispute is in regards to the the Sunken Isles (Morytian: Shÿljakü) which is nowadays controlled by Fishland but Xtrakva claims it as rightfully hers, pushing ancestral claims as the isles hold a very important role in Xtrakva's early history, being the place where the founding fathers of Xtrakva shored up after their ship began sinking.
