Here's a big map of my imaginary country, it's not that good, but the more detailed sub-maps are better, and more interesting to look at.
The Climate There

Klial is in the southern hemisphere of a planet, the axis of which is a few degrees more lopsided than that of the earth. So the south pole is always in darkness and as one travels north, there is more and more daylight, to the point where at the north pole there's only ever light. The climate reflects this in bands which I've tried to illustrate, above.
Raindrinker

Here's a detailed map of the provincial district of Raindrinker, a frontier area, heavily forested and often dark. Read about it here: http://www.lulu.com/product/paperback/raindrinker---the-murderers-march/6522810
The Windsea

A region of lakes caused by rift-expansions of the nearby highlands and fed by the great rivers of the West. the Windsea is contained by the provincial region called Windheart and it can be read about here: http://www.lulu.com/product/paperback/windheart-the-city-and-the-sea/5261747?productTrackingContext=search_results/search_shelf/center/2
Solemnwell

Another provincial district of Klial, Solemnwell is the northern branches of the many mountain ranges that comprise the East/central divide of the continent - known as the Klialispine, or the roof of the world.

Do you use this region for running role playing campaigns too?
Is there any other reason anyone would waste that much time?
Well...welcome to SFZero, where we don't need any particular reason to invest vast amounts of time, except that it might be cool :)
I have a couple of friends who draw up countries just for the simple expedient of planning them out, societally and physically and such. Admittedly the role playing is probably more common but I can see it being a satisfying venture purely by itself.
Hi and welcome!
I really like how much work you put into this (and the character development that went along with it)
If you have any questions, interests, desire to collaborate, please send me a message!
