Climate
Continental, with four distinct seasons.
Temperate plateau studded with castle ruins — rolling mountains averaging 800m, deep forests, lakes used in summer and frozen in winter. Entirely landlocked: no sea coast, no ports, no sea lanes, and no maritime jurisdiction. The Danube on the southern edge is its only major waterway; everything else moves by rail and road.
Economy
Technology industry, advanced manufacturing, craft beer, restorative tourism, and the largest software workforce in the Republic.
Medieval heritage, strong civic tradition, and a particular pride in maintaining historic buildings alongside very modern offices.
