Europe (The Kalmar Union)

Europe is the second smallest continent but holds the largest number of independent states. It is bordered to the West by the Atlantic Ocean. To the north the various states of the Kalmar Union stretch from the icy wastes of the sub-arctic islands to the Great North European Plain. To the east the huge nations of the Rus' touch Siberia and the Far-East. To the south the Mediterranean forms a barrier between the wealthy Iberian and Italian states and those nominally subject to the Caliphate. And in the centre lie the multitude of states forming the Holy Roman Empire and Francia.
