Northern Tellia
Northern Tellia, also known as Thither Tellia, Western Trans-Elwynn, Angularis, and Aizien Kuzoroq (Elw, "the wide open", an ironic name given that most of it is covered in woodland), is a region in Benacia currently in dispute between the Tellian Confederation and the Elwynnese Republic. Both Tellia and Elwynn claim full sovereignty over the area; Tellia since the Kalirion Fracture of 1671, but has not exercised any large authority over the area (except for, perhaps, Città di Scoglitto and Fiorecittà), and Elwynn annexed the territory in 1679. Elwynn has had a vested interest in the area since long before that, though, as it was once part of the Elwynnese Union area of Vale of Angularis along with today's Trans-Elwynn region.
Tellia has not exercised any control over the area except in Scoglitto, the main city of the region, causing the area to be ruled by various mafias and warlords, notably the 'Nclavesci. This prompted Elwynnese, Sanaman and UGB excursions into the area since the early 1670s. By 1679, the Elwynnese established through its Fälttåget mot 'Nclavesci campaign a Peace and Stability Mission that began overseeing the establishment of a legal order in parts of the region, with the view to extend that legal order to the entirety of the region as soon as possible.
