−	Closer to the center of the map are the 9 [[Guild Provinces]]. They are linked to several nation locations and can be fast travelled to if they are linked to the capital. Controlling the nation locations is an important part of being able to fast travel and generally defend the guild provinces. Guild provinces only have burning flags indicating enemy presence during a State of War siege. This means enemies can and may be lurking around unknown to anyone at the province. The guild claiming the province can set permissions on the doors and other structures to allow or deny access to the rest of the nation.

 When leading a party to begin a siege, leaders will often avoid "lighting" a flag for as long as possible to use the element of surprise to their advantage. They do this by staying outside the range that enemy activity is detected until they are ready to strike. It is not possible to "sneak" directly up to a location's walls without the map flag indicating a siege is occurring. The enemy does not have to be banging on the doors or doing any damage for the siege indicator to trigger. The flags will indicate a siege if an enemy is anywhere nearby the location, even if they are trying to hide.

+==Native Territory==
 Each nation has its own biome and atmosphere in its native territory. Each nation's native territory extends from the capital city to the distance of two “links” in either direction, visible on the world map. Ismirs inhabit the northwest side of the map from Tenebrok to Ulfgard. Their land is snowy and mountainous. The Sangmar hail from the south, from Scarsdale to Seaclaw. Their areas are sandy and rocky. Midland's home territory in the north and east is grassy and swampy and stretches from Rodrock to Greenport.
