Cimmeria
Martian continent encompassing plains, mines, refugee camps, rivers, and dumpsites. Site of significant refugee activity and conflict.
Cimmeria emerges in Iron Gold as a sprawling Martian continent scarred by war, where vast plains, abandoned mines, and makeshift refugee camps along rivers and dumpsites become flashpoints for displacement and violence in the fragile post-Society era. By Dark Age, the region evolves into a strategically vital northern stronghold, its helium-rich deposits and rugged shield mountains transforming it into a contested battleground amid escalating planetary conflicts. Across the books, Cimmeria shifts from a symbol of humanitarian crisis and scattered survival to a resource-driven theater of war, highlighting Mars's fractured geography and the saga's deepening themes of reclamation and conquest.
