Quillan (English: [kwɪlən]) is one of the continents of Spectradom. It is also referred to as Yukuceka (New Karanesa: [jokutʃɛka]).
Etymology[edit | edit source]
"Quillan" is a play on the word quill, referencing an older technique for writing. Before ballpoint pens, an inkwell and a quill were used to write with ink.
In-universe, "Quillan" is a translation of Old Rokadong "Fitaerhuwi" (Modern Rokadong Fitáruvi, Modern Kairitelan Fitayuga), which, as a compound noun, was translated as "quill pen" by Linnerian scholars.

The Quill Kingdom (Rokadong: Sinyasan Fitáruvi) is a state that claims the majority of western Quillan. Although called a "kingdom", it is more of an empire, as it is comprised of multiple states formed when the Empire of Karan fell apart in Dúrisa 48, which were united by the crown of Rauratoshan over the course of the Peska dynasty.
Republic of Karan[edit | edit source]
- Main article: Republic of Karan
The Republic of Karan is one of the leftover countries from the Empire of Karan, and considers itself a continuation of this empire, since they speak High Karanesa, a descendant of the Imperial Karanesa language.
