The Condor Massif then draws the border with Deodeca until it departs from the drainage divide by turning north into a landscape of hills and glacial lakes. The border with the Federal States is defined by natural features, parallels and meridians. The main feature along this border are two of the Great Lakes: {{relation|88488|Lake Minnehunkou}} and {{relation|88486|Lake Wihinapa}} located in the western section of border. The border with the Astrasian Confederation is mainly marked by two rivers: the Takaou and the Deleuze Rivers. Mostly due to its extensive archipelagos, Ardencia possesses an Exclusive economic zone covering more than 3,000,000km{{exp|2}}. | ||

Ardencia has a wide variety of topographical sets and natural landscapes. Large parts of the southern Provinces sit on a geological shield that was heavily eroded during Glacial Ages. Though it generally features poor soils improper for agriculture, the ''Abc'' Shield underground is filled with substantial deposits of mineral ores. This region is heavily covered by coniferous forests. Central and Eastern Ardencia are dominated by large plains drained by powerful rivers such as the Efée or the Ewa. These fertile silt beds are extensively used for agriculture, mainly cereal fields. Northern Ardencia, generally hillier, is dominated by the Great Lakes system. | Ardencia has a wide variety of topographical sets and natural landscapes.

Ardencia (Ardence in Franquese, Ardencja in Lechian) is a federal republic located in South Archanta. The country spans ...km2 (... sq mi), making Ardencia one of the largest countries in the world in terms of land area. It is a sparsely inhabited country of 22 million people with a mid-sized economy.
Its capital is Saint Armand wich is also largest city of the country. Ardencia is composed of 12 Provinces in wich Franquese is the official language, even if Lechian and Ingerish are also mostly spoken in some of them.
Indigenous peoples have continuously inhabited the territory for thousands of years and their culture remains present throughout the country..
Etymology
Ardencia takes its name from the Ardentic Ocean that washes the country’s long eastern coast.
Geography
Location and borders
Ardencia is a transcontinental country located in South Archanta. The vast majority of the country’s territory and population is situated on its mainland. One part of Ardencia, the province of Seganak, is located on the Island of Owanko (map)∈ shared with Neo Delta and six archipelagos partake to the territory as well:
- 01 Isles Blanches [1]
- 02 Katinga Islands (Katinngajut-Qikiqtaq) [2]
- 03 Kawanga Islands (Kawanngajut-Qikiqtaq) [3]
- 04 Lillians Islands [4]
- 05 Isle of New Franquia [5]
- 06 Western Islands [6]
Extreme points:
North: Sainte Rose River, Federal State border (Here)
South: ... Cape, Duke Brown Island (Here)
East: ... Island, Lilian Islands (Here)
West: .... Island, Isles Blanches (Here)
In longitude, the country spans ....km (...mi) from 126.46°E in Cap to 158.88°E the Deleuze River. In Latitude, Ardencia stretches ...km (...mi) from the 42nd Parallel (Here) to the 54th Parallel (Here), considering the mainland only.
It is bordered in the west by the Asperic Ocean and the Ardentic Ocean in east.
Its land borders consist of Ambrosia, Deodeca and the Federal States of Archanta to the north, the Astrasian Confederation to the east and Neo Delta in the south. In the northwest, the border with Ambrosia is delineated by the Mattappi River∈⊾, the Missanappi∈⊾, and the Condor Massif. The Condor Massif then draws the border with Deodeca until it departs from the drainage divide by turning north into a landscape of hills and glacial lakes. The border with the Federal States is defined by natural features, parallels and meridians. The main feature along this border are two of the Great Lakes: Lake Minnehunkou∈⊾ and Lake Wihinapa∈⊾ located in the western section of border. The border with the Astrasian Confederation is mainly marked by two rivers: the Takaou and the Deleuze Rivers. Mostly due to its extensive archipelagos, Ardencia possesses an Exclusive economic zone covering more than 3,000,000km2.
Geology, topography and hydrography
Ardencia has a wide variety of topographical sets and natural landscapes. Large parts of the southern Provinces sit on a geological shield that was heavily eroded during Glacial Ages. Though it generally features poor soils improper for agriculture, the Abc Shield underground is filled with substantial deposits of mineral ores. This region is heavily covered by coniferous forests. Central and Eastern Ardencia are dominated by large plains drained by powerful rivers such as the Efée or the Ewa. These fertile silt beds are extensively used for agriculture, mainly cereal fields. Northern Ardencia, generally hillier, is dominated by the Great Lakes system.

High mountains are mainly located along the central sections of both sets of borders. The Abc-North Mountains are an old eroded range that underwent an uplift when the east and west side sides of Southern Astrasia collided, generating the Abc-South Mountains. This collision created a series of parallel foldings in Central Ardencia between these mountain ranges, isolated Western Ardencia from the rest of the country. Thanks to many low-altitude gaps, various communication routes have developed between both regions.
The Abc-North Mountains are generally considered separated from the Condor Massif, though their orogenesis and geology are similar. At 2,494m (8,182 ft) above sea level, Mount Abc, located on the border with Deodeca is the highest point in the Abc-North Mountains.
The Abc-South Mountains, with their classic alpine profile, are usually split into five separate groups due to the large valleys isolating them.

The long East Coast (over 4,100km) offers contrasting landscapes: rocky and lined with glacial lakes in the extreme south, flat and sandy, with sometimes extensive lagoons in the centre. North of the large Lechians Bay, the coast is dotted with roadsteads offering many havens. The souskoutian Coast consists mostly of alluvial plains, former islands with some klippes left off the coast. The straight line of this flat coast is interrupted by a series of large estuaries, most of them being hardly navigable due to silting.
Climate
The climate of Ardencia is pretty cold, above all in the South. Its western part is wet and mild and its eastern coast is known to be windy. In the north, beyond the Mountains Range the climate is more continental but warmer during the summer.
Administrative divisions
12 Provinces form the first-level of subdivision of the Ardencian Federation. Each province is vested with autonomous powers exercised by a provincial parliament and government. Per tradition, the Provinces have maintained representative offices to the Federation in Saint-Armand.
Each Province is further divided into Departments from their Franquese name - départements. And each Department is composed of Municipalities - Municipalités or Counties (in the former Ingerish-speaking regions. In Lechian-speaking Provinces or in areas where Lechian is spoken, these third-level of administrative subdivisions are called powiaty (powiat in singular) meaning county or district. Some former subdivisions in Franquese-speaking Provinces were called comtés as well.

National flag
The national flag of Ardencia is one and a half times wider than its height (i.e. in the proportion 2:3). It depicts, on a carmine field edged with gold, two golden stars and a rendition of an embroidering pattern found on traditional clothing worn by Native Peoples of Ardencia. The two stars represent the Franquese and Lechian peoples while the central pattern, conveying the sense of community, stands for the Native people Federations. The pattern occupies a third of the flag width. Gold symbolizes the wealth of the soil. Red symbolizes the blood of those who fought for the independence.
