Zaphon

Zaphon, also called Saphon or Sapan, is the home of the Canaanite gods.

Description
Zaphon was once located on top of an actual mountain in the Middle East, 60 miles north of the port-city of Ugrait. Today that mountain is referred to as Jebel Aqra. Similar to Olympus, Zaphon has moved over the centuries, at one point hovering over the city of carthage, and it is now located in the United States. Instead of being located on a physical mountain, Zaphon is now located on a metaphysical duplicate that does not connect to the ground and cannot be detected by mortals due to the mist.

At it's top is a city featuring palaces for all the Elohim gods and goddesses as well and residences for their demigod children and other creatures and beings from Canaanite mythology. Unlike Olympus, Zaphon is decrepit and largely empty.

The original king and queen of Zaphon were El and Asherhah; the first Canaanite gods. They had 70 sons and 70 daughters. These 140 deities and their divine descendants were referred to as the Elohim or "Children of El".

The Elohim were connected to the spirit of Canaanite civilization the same way the Olympians is tied to the spirit of what became known as "Western Civilization".

After the Battle of Carthage in 149 the "Flame of Canaan" was snuffed out by the Roman Empire and as a result the Elohim were severely weakened. Most of them either fading or going into hibernation.

After Rome had conquered Carthage and Canaan, Zaphon became tied to the Flame of the West. As the flame of the West moved from country to country, Zaphon and the comatose gods sleeping there were dragged along with it.

It took until the 21st century for the remaining Elohim to regain their lost strength and awaken. They still aren't as strong as they were in their hayday.
