**Ocean
**Hills
**Desert
**Forest
**Mountains
**Glacier
**Wetland
**Grassland
**Lake
**Tundra

==underground_regions==
Similar to the <regions> element. The <underground_region> elements contain the following:
*id - reference number used to identify the region
*type - can be:
**cavern

Other information such as marriages are stored in the historical_events element.

== entity_populations ==

Each <entity_population> element contains only a single tag, giving an id number.

== entities ==

Each <entity> element contains an id tag, and may also contain a name tag.

Entityies are civilizations, groups (which can found sites/religions/attack/defend), or religions.

==historical_events==

The <historical_event> element is the most complex. Each contains:

* id - a reference number
* year - the year in which the event took place
* seconds72 -
* type - a label indicating what sort of event this is.

The other elements of the historical_event will depend on the contents of the type element. Types include:

* start_seconds72 -
* end_year - the year in which the event collection ended
* start_seconds72 -
* event - one or more events which are part of this collection
