A peninsula on the southeasternmost part of the Na'Nam Continent, Khomi province shares a border with Kir and Shi'al to the north and Gol to the west. Except for the Llangon Mountains, the savannah-like plains to the west and a small fertile strip along the coast, Khomi primarily consists of flat and barren hardpan; cracked and canyoned by regular tectonic activity. The region's wealth consists almost exclusively in its large mineral deposits and the trade conducted by its coastal cities. However, one should also note that the wines produced in the hills near Te’Rashar are prized for their unique flavors and exquisite quality and the city's university is second only to the great learning centers of Shi'Kahr.
