Geography and Climate
Eons ago, the land was once enveloped by a gigantic glacier, as described in ancient scripts as "Miracle". When the glacial ice retreated to the Frozen Wastes, it carved the terrain of the the land that would be known as Mutrimurad, and Mira before that. Pure glacial water pooled in several lakes and underwater resevoirs. Great rivers ran through the entire length of the land and ebbed out in numerous branches and webs of streams. The glacier and the rivers carved through rock and dirt shaping sloped plains, rocky hill sides, monolithic mountains, valleys, and canyons. Once the grand glacial river, which once almost flooded the entire land, receded it made the land fertile enough for a variety of trees and crops to grow from the flat plains to the nooks and crannies of rocky crags. Under the dirt and rock are rich deposits of iron, salt, coal, and copper with traces of marble and gold. The stormy winds from the Northern Wastes run down the length of the land, along with the rivers, making Mutrimurad renowned for its windy days and bouts of long light rains.

Denizens and Culture
The inhabitants of Mutrimurad are generally called the called the "Mutrandi" or the "Mutrimurs". They are the direct descendants of the great ancient Miran Empire. Though currently united under the banner of the Mutrandi empire, the people were once divided amongst the city states with demonyms from their respective city, such as the Damistans from Damistad, Tirids from Tiridur, et cetera, et cetera. These demonyms are usually still around in order to specify which imperial region people or objects originate from. In several cases, the names of the cities have been integrated into the last names of common people, such as "Jon izn Goroth" or "Jon Gorothi" which means "Jon of Goroth".

Although it has been millenia since the fall of the ancient Miran empire, the Mutrandi still use the same writing systems as their precursors had for thousands of years. Therefore, some of the ancient culture and knowledge are intertwined with the current Mutrandi identity. In all the history of Mutrimurad, even back to the old Miran civilization, Mutrandi are completely a secular people with little to no intolerance to other beliefs.

Both knowledge and workmanship are both good values to have for the Mutrandi people. Mutrandi youth are given basic education in fundamental arithmetic, survival, and moral values. After reaching maturity, Mutrandi are often given a chance to pursue career paths, but may be conscripted into the trades or the military in times of economic or wartime crises.
