[[File:Mount Kersivius.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Mount Kersivius is the tallest Auroran mountain at 7,405 m]]
The '''Zycannes''' are the highest and most extensive [[wikipedia:Mountain range|mountain range]] system that lies entirely in Aurora, across seven different countries: [[Axdel]], [[Staynes]], [[South Staynes]], [[Nation/Xagrurg|Xagrurg]], [[Ethalria]] and [[Caltharus]]. The mountains were formed over tens of millions of years as the Packilvanian and Auroran tectonic plates collided. Extreme shortening caused by the event resulted in marine sedimentary rocks rising by thrusting and folding into high mountain peaks such as [[Mount Kersivius]] and the Hvítur Fjall. Mount Kersivius spans the Staynish-Caltharusian border, and at 87,505405 m (27or 24,903294 ft) is the highest mountain in the Zycannes. The mountain range contains about one hundred and fiftyforty nine peaks higher than 76,000 metres (just underover 2319,000685 feet).
 
The altitude and size of the range affects the climate in Aurora; without the mountain range, the entire of South Staynes would be desert.
