|Geography=The Western Lowlands occupy the western part of Balúrail, from the coast east to the [[Diate River]] and its tributaries, which separate them from the [[Eastern Highlands]]. They include the peninsula of [[Ivaiê]] in the southwest and the [[Mifajene Reservation]] in the northwest. The land is largely peat bog, with patches of solid ground between the bogs and light forests scattered across the region. The drier ground is fertile and supports Tuzquão agriculture. Most of the rivers of the lowlands rise in the highlands to the east and flow west to the sea.
