KalKash was a part of Cascadia before its abandonment. To the east, it was close to the city known as [[Aurora:Purest Pines|Purest Pines]], a successful city given its location also in Canada, though it was farther east. KalKash did have moderate gains from being part of Cascadia, having valuable resources such as diamonds and other ores. It also yielded decent crops, with its members travelling all the way to South Asia to obtain sugar cane and grow it locally. Most of the sugar cane farms survived the abandonment and are still harvested to this day. While the city was still fairly functional and civilized, a large cactus farm was made. This was a good investment, which gave the inhospitable Canadian swamp the ability to bear cacti. | KalKash was a part of Cascadia before its abandonment.

KalKash sits in a highly rural area of Central Canada, | KalKash sits in a highly rural area of Central Canada, south of the Hudson bay. The area is often described as swampy, despite it not being officially in a swamp biome. Water sits in almost puddled amounts each time it appears on the ground, with some river-like streams around. The ground is generally flat, with some minor inconsistencies in ground level, but nothing more than a block or two in most cases. Surrounding the town, there are plenty of abandoned structures, once-functioning towns, and even cities that never seemed to get a proper start in civilization attempts. | ||
