THE WORLD OF SAMURAI RUACH
The whole landscape and atmosphere of Samurai Ruach (The Series) is one which could very easily exist today, or could have existed in this reality a while ago. It's described as an "all-genres" action series because... well, THAT'S WHAT IT IS! When writing it, I thought, why limit things to just one style that I like, why not do them all? Then you get the most "bang for your buck", so to speak. So, the world of Samurai Ruach is one with ai (in human cloned bodies), aliens, androids, angels, clones, cyborgs, demons, dragons, fairies, hybrid beings (animal-human-other species crossovers), robots, super soldiers, vampires, werewolves, zombies, and more. There's a host of different locations, mystical, man-made, and technological weapons and vehicles, and beings of all sorts with all sorts of abilities. All of this plays out in a world where spiritually and physically the veil between worlds has been torn open and some things came through from the other side. Meanwhile, on this side, the tear happened in a global world war, in which man warred against robots controlled by AI, triggered by a human secret society's plot to take over the world. This opened the door for this whole new world, all of which could, again, very very very easily end up being this reality you're reading this in-- if it's not already. You just might not know about it. All of the parts needed are there, and in a sense, all that is needed is for someone to actually do it.

MAPS & DISTRICTS
The map shows the breakdown of what used to be the US and parts of Canada and Mexico, which, in the story, are known as the HOMELAND TERRITORIES. This area is where the main story takes place. The lines have all been redrawn into districts, each with their own backstory and flavor. Some were fought for by the people living there, while others got to where they are by way of politics and trades during "The War" (Hell In August), and some others were just abandoned lands that were uninhabitable, and developed on their own. This version of the world and this map first appeared in a blog post featured on The Zephaniah Chesterfield Project's page. All of the districts are featured on the map, and their descriptions are there as well for the EastLand Districts, the MidLand Districts, and the WestLand Districts.
TWO THINGS NOT MENTIONED HERE are:
(1) The X-IS (Axis, Access, X'es) which are portals that never close. They're all around in certain spots where that place overlaps perfectly with all other realities. So That one bathroom stall in your world is the same as it is in this world which is the exact same (down to the tiles and stains) in all of the other realities, so, since it's the same it opens a vortex and if you know how to move from dimension to dimension, then you can go there and pick where you want to come out. There are gatekeepers though. But those are not on the map. One of the main X points is where the veil was torn which started at a point between the Bermuda and Dragon Triangles.
(2) The Openings to The Caves/Tunnels (where Ben grew up after Hell In August and the war of the topsiders) because there are access points to those everywhere. Also not mentioned, so Ok, three things, are where the prison camps are. They're in every district as well. Anyways, moving on...
