|Introduction=Trael is a state in the League of Payalwa.
|Introduction=Sainsal is a state in the [[League of Balúrail]].
|Geography=The wilds consist mostly of rolling hills and rugged terrain. Numerous small rivers carve their way through the landscape. The Tagore Forest in the northwest of the territory is the densest population in one of the larger forests in Payalwa. All of the Free Olsendi cities surround this forest in the small river valley that encompasses the region.
|Etymology=Named after the Boiyende explorer Lavie Sainssail who founded the city of Sainsal.
|History=Sainsal is the second newest state in the League.
|Geography=Sainsal is a marshy region located in northwest Balúrail. The majority of Sainsal is composed of the [[Serraorsse Swamp]] and the [[Dorrear Swamp]]. Three large lakes, [[Lake Lebolur]], [[Lake Arco]] and the largest, [[Lake Dorrear]] dot the landscape. The [[Dorrear River]] flows through the land. The population is centered on a narrow strip of fertile and relatively dry land (it still gets flooded frequently) between the two great swamps, known as the Moro Strip, and along the coasts of Lake Dorrear and the [[Minop River]].
