 ==== Regions ====
 Ulos has four official provinces, each with a rather distinct culture.
-  * **Langit Province:** Langit is located in the center of Ulos’ broad dominion, and is the largest of Ulos’ provinces in terms of both population and landmass. The island of Mistik is located within Langit. The province encompasses both this large island and surrounding archipelagos. Its climate is solidly tropical, as is the climate of most of the country. The Langit province is quite metropolitan, exporting arcane goods and educated individuals. The capital of Langit is Menghormati.
+ === Langit Province ===
-  * **Baskoro Province:** This province is of middling size and is the northernmost of the Ulos provinces, bordering the Oxis Alliance and northern Dahabu. It is a trade hub between Ulos and these nations, as well as Buyuk Vahsi. Significant cultural exchange has occurred as a result of these activities, and the Baskoro region is extremely diverse, with heavy influence from Vervand. Some cities in Baskoro hold an annual festival known as the Längstenachtfest, a traditional holiday in Vervand. The capital of Baskoro is New Dubroshire.

-  * **Kainoa Province:** The smallest of Ulos’ provinces, Kainoa is made up mostly of a cluster of volcanic islands. These volcanoes have been unusually active historically, leading Kainoa residents to devise methods of dealing with the ever-present threat of lava and ash. As a result, Kainoan settlements are incredibly disaster-ready, most capable of erecting magical shields in a matter of hours to cover the entire town the moment an eruption is reported. Kainoa borders Ley’Ork, and is home to a large tourism industry. The capital of Kainoa was Moku’pele before Ley’Ork annexation; currently, there is no defined capital city.
+ === Baskoro Province ===
-  * **Gohyang Province:** This province borders Ruefang, and is the center of the two countries’ longstanding friendship. The multinational Kinland Order meets in Gohyang and maintains a constant presence, with many people within it identifying more as Kinland Order citizens than as Ulosian citizens. Mages from Menghormati and Szczyet often travel through Gohyang, staying awhile, when headed to study the natural phenomena of Ruefang. The capital of Gohyang is Cheonsuwon.

 **Makani, Peaceful Getaway:** //Population 2,000.// In stark contrast to the hustle and bustle of New Dubroshire, a mere few hundred miles away across salty sea, Makani is a sleepy fishing village with a sense of incredible peace about it. Located at the edge of a doldrum, the winds here are calm and the weather is kept constant by the tender care of air mages. Many people come to Makani to "find themselves", or just to escape from the chaos of life outside.
-**Moku'pele, Last Bastion of Kings:** //Population 1.5 million.// Following the upheaval that led to the current state of Ulosian government, Moku'pele was the last place one could find a living royal family. For the past century, its economy has run mainly on the business of tourism, receiving many visitors from Ley'Ork due to its proximity. Moku'pele and its surrounding area was annexed by Ley'Ork in 10059 and the Kainoa ruler, Queen Pua'lani, was extradited to Ley'Ork Spire. This event has led to ongoing tensions between Ulos and Ley'Ork; some fear it could erupt into war.

   * **Ahupua'a:** //Population ~700.// A small village on the edge of Moku'pele's metropolitan region, paradoxically excluded from the Ley'Ork annexation. As the closest location to the disputed Moku'pele territory, Ahupua'a Island has steadily turned from a mining town to a military garrison.
