<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Courier"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Courier">KGT 16f.:&nbsp; Within the land mass are distinct areas, some of which are demarcated geographically (divided by a mountain range, for example), while the boundaries
 of others seem rather arbitrary, the result, no doubt, of ancient power struggles. A specific area whose borders are definable, by whatever means, is normally called a {<b><span style="font-weight:bold">Sep}</span></b>, commonly translated as &#8220;<i><span style="font-style:italic">region&#8221;</span></i>,
 though, since the regions were politically distinct in the past, &#8220;<i><span style="font-style:italic">country&#8221;</span></i> might have at one time been just as appropriate a translation. An identifiable area within a {<b><span style="font-weight:bold">Sep}</span></b>
 is a {<b><span style="font-weight:bold">yoS}</span></b> (<i><span style="font-style:italic">area</span></i>,
<i><span style="font-style:italic">district</span></i>), and a {<b><span style="font-weight:bold">yoS}</span></b> usually contains at least one important {<b><span style="font-weight:bold">veng}</span></b> (<i><span style="font-style:italic">city</span></i>);
 though sometimes, especially in the more rugged parts of a planet, there may be only a small settlement or {<b><span style="font-weight:bold">vengHom}</span></b> [<i><span style="font-style:italic">village</span></i>]). This terminology is also used when describing
 other planets within the Empire ... Sometimes, however, the meaning of a place name is clear, such as the Sakrej region's {<b><span style="font-weight:bold">HuD beQ yoS}</span></b> (<i><span style="font-style:italic">Flat Mountain district</span></i>)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

lughchu'. Now at home and can look up the sources, and it turns out the only yoS mentioned by name in KGT is HuD beQ yoS &quot;Flat Mountain district&quot; (p. 17), in the Sakrej region. (Surprising; I thought more yoSmey were mentioned there.) tlhIng yoS is indeed from
 BoP, in the general specifications section:<br>
