Kolyma (Russian: Колыма) is located in the far northeastern area in what is commonly known as Siberia. The extremely remote region gets its name from the Kolyma River and mountain range, parts of which were not discovered until 1926. Though geographically and ethnically an Arctic island nation associated with the continent of Asia, politically and historically Kolyma is closely tied to Europe.

| - Kolyma (Russian: Колыма) is located in the far northeastern area in what is commonly known as Siberia. The extremely remote region gets its name from the Kolyma River and mountain range, parts of which were not discovered until 1926. Though geographically and ethnically an Arctic island nation associated with the continent of Asia, politically and historically Kolyma is closely tied to Europe.
- The area, part of which is within the Arctic Circle, has a subarctic climate with very cold winters lasting up to six months of the year. Permafrost and tundra cover a large part of the region. Average winter temperatures range from -19 °C to -38 °C (even lower in the interior), and average summer temperatures, from +3 °C to +16 °C.
- Kolyma can refer to several things: It can refer to the kingdom (eastern Kolyma) where Cedric (Valanice's father) is one of the princes of the realm, and where her mother Coignice is also from. It is also the name of the continent (or island) where the kingdom is located. It can refer to the Land of Kolyma (western Kolyma) the western region of the continent in general, the main kingdom where Valanice homeland lies. Beyond the mountains lies the rest of the Kingdom of Kolyma ('eastern Kolyma') where the population center exists (though kingdom can also refer to the entire continent, or even western half of the continent as well).

| abstract
| - Kolyma (Russian: Колыма) is located in the far northeastern area in what is commonly known as Siberia. The extremely remote region gets its name from the Kolyma River and mountain range, parts of which were not discovered until 1926. Though geographically and ethnically an Arctic island nation associated with the continent of Asia, politically and historically Kolyma is closely tied to Europe.
- Kolyma can refer to several things: It can refer to the kingdom (eastern Kolyma) where Cedric (Valanice's father) is one of the princes of the realm, and where her mother Coignice is also from. It is also the name of the continent (or island) where the kingdom is located. It can refer to the Land of Kolyma (western Kolyma) the western region of the continent in general, the main kingdom where Valanice homeland lies. Beyond the mountains lies the rest of the Kingdom of Kolyma ('eastern Kolyma') where the population center exists (though kingdom can also refer to the entire continent, or even western half of the continent as well). Sometimes the Enchanted Isles/Enchanted Island are considered parts of Kolyma. Though distant, and perhaps beyond the mountain range (but others believe it exists in its own part of the world far away from Kolyma, or even in another world in multiverse). Kolyma or more specifically the Land of Kolyma ('western Kolyma') was visited during King's Quest II: Romancing the Throne.
- The area, part of which is within the Arctic Circle, has a subarctic climate with very cold winters lasting up to six months of the year. Permafrost and tundra cover a large part of the region. Average winter temperatures range from -19 °C to -38 °C (even lower in the interior), and average summer temperatures, from +3 °C to +16 °C. Under Joseph Stalin's rule of the Soviet Union, Kolyma became the most notorious region for the Gulag labor camps. Tens of thousands or more people may have died en route to the area or in the Kolyma's series of gold mining, road building, lumbering, and construction camps between 1932 and 1954. It was Kolyma's reputation that caused Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, author of The Gulag Archipelago, to characterize it as the "pole of cold and cruelty" in the Gulag system.
