Uluru Macrocosm

Initial Notes
Uluru is shaped pretty much like Australia flipped over. It is not meant to BE Australia. Its meant to be a fictional realm shaped a lot like Australia with the same kind of weather, geology, native plants, animals and human ethnic groups. Using the baby continent as a template is just cutting corners on the world building. During sandboxing, the idea of the most advanced human civilization having a lot more in common with classical Greece/Rome than is does with medieval Europe was introduced. There is also going to be some heavy borrowing from Dave Hershey's game settings.

The Geography Of Uluru
Uluru has one continent the rough size and shape of Australia and several smaller islands. Uluru can be treated as a flat world by characters and players alike. There are no other continents, what lies behind all horizons is the Underworld. There is a sun, a moon and stars just like Real World but see mythology.

The BaruThe Baru (Uluru) (red region on map) is a vast desert with very little human habitation and nomadic races. It is surrounded by rolling grasslands to the north and west where

Mythology
The sun is the goddess Alinga, the Queen of Heaven. The moon is Gidja, ruler of the Underworld and jealous rival of Alinga.
