Suthebas

Suthebas is a region encompassing the coastal lands between the mouth of the Iyamtusid River and the Thedda Delta. It was established as a province of the First Theddite Empire in 15202, separating from the Gulf Coast province. The capital of the region under the Theddites was Pinarea, and Varding was the primary port.

History
By the 15200s, the Gulf Coast province had experienced major growth under Theddite rule, and it was decided that it would be split into two provinces instead of one large administrative unit. The southern portion, separated from the capital, Levidoc, was turned into the province of Suthebas with its capital at Pinarea. The province produced mainly horses, fish, and (less frequently) grains, due to its flat, arid landscape. However, the real profit came from the lucrative trading routes along the Iyamtusid, buying and selling goods from Phiriactom, who in turn traded with the wealthy Iamtuche. Following the division of the Theddite Empire, The province was briefly controlled by Lastilas Toranas, then divided between numerous kingdoms after the Theddican-Lobanc War. The Second Theddite Empire absorbed the areas surrounding Poross in the eastern part of the province. Elsewhere, the cities of the region became independent; this included the Kingdom of Pinarea, and the duchies of Varding and Radothias. Eventually, Pinarea conquered its neighbors, controlling most of the territories of the former province. The Kingdom of Poross gained independence from the Theddite Empire in 16277.
