Much of Casillo y Real is dominated by mountains: surveys note that approximately 32% of land area is either a plateau or a mountain 1,000 meters or higher above sea level. The Nevadres Mountains, and their sub-chains the Julocieres and the Rezores, comprise the largest mountain ranges in the nation. The highest peak in the nation is the mountain of Montabuelo, while the largest is Tiuñolo, at a height of 1,879 meters and an estimated size of 230 square kilometers.

Rivers play an important part in the geology of Casillo y Real. Much of the Nevadres are divided between rivers and streams which have eroded between the peaks. The longest river, the Dorada, is 867 kilometers long and 4 kilometers across at its widest point. Several other significant rivers are the Ourá, Rojó, Azuré, Amaríllo, Truca, Buviele, and Seripente. With relatively few lakes, 72% of surface freshwater is contained in these rivers. Large deltas and alluvial plains exist along much of the Corric coastline where the rivers meet the ocean.

The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-arid_climate semi-arid steppe] climate (Bsh) occupies most of the districts in the south. The majority of Maláma, Castijara, and Grejona territory is semi-arid, though some parts of Elvacedo, Marsalvano, and Salasca also possess this climate. It is characterized by hot, dry summers and cool winters with limited precipitation, and is usually found inland some distance from the ocean.

The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_climate dry temperate climate] (Csa,) otherwise known as the Coastal climate, is the most widespread climate type in Casillo y Real. It covers over 80% of the Avantana and Tomaras districts, 40% of Grejona, 32% of Castijara, and 20% of Maláma. It also is present in moderate amounts in Cartavedra, Marsalvano, Salasca, and Vizedora. It is characterized by dry summers that are warm-to-hot, and cold winters with moderate precipitation, though it remains something of an intermediate climate zone. It exists across multiple regions with differing elevations, temperatures, and precipitation averages, and thus is difficult to quantify as a comprehensive climate.

The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humid_subtropical_climate wet temperate climate] (Cfa) occupies most of central Cartevedra, as well as all but the most eastern regions of Vizedora and south-eastern regions of Elvacedo. It is also present in northern Marsalvano. This climate occurs at higher altitudes with plentiful rainfall and water systems, resulting in lush vegetation and no true dry season, although precipitation remains comparatively low.

The Andoran region shares many species of plants and animals with the surrounding lands, including the golden eagle, the national animal of Casillo y Real. The different sub-regions have distinct soil profiles, precipitation, air quality, and ease of emigration, which defines the plant types that grow there and thus also the animals. Some species that are unique to the region are the Andoran brush wolf, the Doradan ox, the Carteñe sheep, and the Violet-fletched woodpecker. Plant subspecies that can be found in Andora are the Avantanan orange and the Julociere olive, which are staple crops. The oceans within Corric territory are highly diverse, but are mostly devoid of interesting hydrological features such as reefs, major currents, or ocean mounts.

Biodiversity is large, and the government maintains programs to keep habitat destruction and species persecution to a minimum. Hunting of nearly any kind is banned except by government officials for the purposes of population control or risk management. The nation has been ranked as one of the highest in Novaris in terms of least human impact on existing environments. Parks and preserves are dedicated to keeping endangered local species alive in the wild; as of 2020 there were nearly 840 facilities of this kind in operation.

The renewable energy industry in Casilló y Réal is marked high for its scale and advancement. While importing material and labor, the infrastructure itself is mostly of Corric design. A number of patents on advanced wind and solar energy generation methods originate from Corric inventors. Many cities and towns use miniaturized wind and water turbines and solar panels to power local infrastructure. Government grants and programs have enabled the green energy capabilities of Casilló y Réal to grow 700% since 2000. The industry itself employs over 94,000 people and contributes 6.3% to GDP.

== Culture ==
Casilló y Réal is a highly cultured nation, with heritage stretching back to the early 3rd Century BCE. It is an Enlightened Coast nation, as defined by Corric philosipher Erik Vael Hernandéz in 1799. Large portions of Corric culture, like language, architecture, and agriculture have derived from its start as an Impelanzan colony, providing its status as a major Impelantic descendant state. Religion has also played a large part in Corric development; [[Tunseism]] and [[Andoran Deusism|Deusism]], in particular, shaped many traditions and beliefs and are still practiced today across the country. Cuisine is one of the largest pillars of Corric culture, influenced by the geographic region and the extensive trade network of the 17th and 18th centuries. This network allowed Casilló y Réal to come into contact with and absorb aspects of many international cultures.
