The Sultanate of Zeif is the westernmost land in the Flanaess, extending beyond the mapped region, and is the oldest surviving Baklunish state, its southern boundary marking the furthest point of the effects of the Invoked Devastion. It is also the most settled of the Flanaess Baklunish states, with almost no wandering peoples within its western lands.

The originally nomadic tribes soon settled in the richly fertile lands along the coast, warmed by the currents of the southern Dramidj. Farming and the raising of horses and other livestock are the staple resource of Zeif, although the Sultan has a secret source of chrysoberyls and peridots of exceptional quality which are usually sold to the western nations through Ket.

Little is known of Zeif. It is said to have territorial ambitions on Ekbir and Tusmit, which may have originally been tributary states, but there is no recent history of major military conflict in these lands.
