Southern Islands Department

The Southern Islands Department (Mirselec Nimesurna Alzer) is one of the three island departments of Risevne. Geographically it covers the largest area of the three, and also has the most islands - a total of nearly 1,750 across the Elaspegian Ocean south of the Risevan Home Islands, of which around 320 are permanently inhabited in some form. The capital of the department is the town of Fanedun, on Garmagos Island.

This department comprises several large island groups, as well as many small and mostly uninhabited atolls scattered across the southeastern Elaspegian. Some of the prominent groups include:

• Tigase Islands, a group of about 70 islands the largest of which is Tigase Island

• Onu Islands, a vast arc of nearly 400 islands centred around the 3 main isles of Meseso, Linisurna and Kadisurna.

• Higeric Islands, which contains Anorsobalye Island (literally meaning Naval Base of Anorso), a major southern naval base for the Risevan Royal Navy.
