The Vale of Angularis, also known as the Vale, is a Bailiwick of the Princely Precinct of the Elwynnese Union which is known as the Emirate of Alalehzamin and Utasia. From 1632, when the area was acquired by Elwynn, until 1638 the Vale was part of another Princely Precinct of the Flower of the North: the Kingdom of Amokolia, wherein it also was known as the Southlands. It is the largest Bailiwick of Lands of the Two Sacred Rivers by a country mile.

About

The area is composed of lands which include the southern half of the former Transelwynn Territory. Aside from those of its parts which are known as The Pale and the Southron Shores, the Vale of Angularis is sparsely populated.

Angularis, existing in the territories of the former Republic of Ashkenatza, has a population including descendants of the survivors of Ashkenatzim, Tellian and Elw settlers in the region. In The Pale there are notable Froyalanish, Wintergleamish, and Babkhi communities in the Pale and along the Southern Shore whilst Amokolians, Tellians and the Kossar descendants of the Ashkenatzim can be found throughout the Forest of Angularis and the Barrowlands.

Trivia

In the song "Oh, Amokolia", which is the Royal Anthem of the Kingdom of Amokolia, the Vale of Angularis is mentioned as the Southlands. The song has become a bit of an anomaly since the transfer of the Vale from Amokolia to Alalehzamin and Utasia, but the Amokolians couldn't care less about that.
