Forests of Gladomyr

An estimated 33% of Myrish territory is covered by s, and are owned mostly by the state. Forest cover in Gladomyr is increasing at a fast rate, with an estimated 40% of Myrish territory being forested by the year 2035. A majority of Gladomyr's forest cover comes from the nation's north, western, and south—especially so in the Myrish Penguinnes. Gladomyr's east is by far the least forested area due to large urban areas, and central Gladomyr is largely agricultural. The kingdoms of Gladomyr ranked by forest cover are Ketolia (60.2%), Letakia (54.5%), Risaavelia (33.1%), Aatemia (30%), and Akerland (29.6%).

Contemporary history
By the end of the 18th century, forests covered around 40% of Gladomyr; however, exploitations of Myrish soil during the 19th century occupations of Gladomyr by Salian and South Myrish forces between 1940—1954, including the increased lumber requirements for weaponry,, and conditions of war, brought the total forest cover in Gladomyr down to just 23%. Furthermore, hasty requirements for more lumber resulted in the planting of faster-growing, non-native trees in place of Gladomyr's rich population. Following the reunification of Gladomyr and the end of the Third World War, initiatives to regrow Gladomyr's forests were passed by the Myrish government, and culminated in the Myrish Conservation and Afforestation Act of 1958. By 1970, forests covered 29% of the country. As of 2009 – 31.1% of Gladomyr's territory was forested, amounting to 9,088,000 s. Estimations based on previous data show that forest cover in Gladomyr has increased to a total of 35% as of 2023.

More than 81.1% of Gladomyr's forests are owned by the state, a majority of which being owned by Myrish Federal Forests (Müriskė Fööderalė Skoger), 2% by Myrish National Forests protected zones, 2% owned by other governmental entities (such as local self-government), and 18.2% belonging to private owners. The nationalization of forests following the conclusion of the Third World War is the largest reason for the high percentage of Myrish forests being owned by the state.

Inhabitation
Within Myrish forests, Coniferous type trees account for 52.1%, whereas broadleaved type trees account for 45.5%. Out of that, alder and riparian forests account for 3.8%. A number of forested zones are now protected by the Myrish government and, in many cases, have become tourist destinations. Throughout the previous decade, many of the largest Myrish forests have been reduced in size through conservation and revitalization efforts, which is reflected on the structure of forest inhabitation.

Up until the end of the 18th Century, forests were considered places for travelers and ordinary folk to stay away from, as they were notoriously home to bandits. They were further believed to be inhabited by evil spirits, and law and order rarely applied to forests for many centuries besides self-policing by their inhabitants. Besides bandits, forests also contained numerous woodsmen, lumberjacks, syrup harvesters, and their families — who made the best of their remote environment. These woodsmen lived on what the forest could produce, collecting for sale – important as method of illuminating city streets – logging construction, collecting , , , , , , and whatever other saleable items could be harvested in the forest and sold in villages outside of it.

Families of the woodsmen produced their own food through gardening and hunting, as well as their own clothing and other amenities. In some cases, their sewing of intricate laces became famous outside the forest, resulting in additional family income. Because of their isolation from society in general, woodsmen and their families developed their own style of dress, music, sewing, dialect, celebrations, and the type of dwellings. The Knuutila woodsmen for example, known as Knuu people, who lived in the forested region known in Gladomyr as the Crystal Forest (Krüstalskog) and the Flowered Wilderness, still proudly proclaim and celebrate their unique culture and customs.
