The Anvil Hills

The Anvil Hills became a Kingdom out of a geographic location/region. The upper western edge of the Western Lands lies the Anvil Hills, the Lake Lands, the western edge of the Black Mountains, and the Dusk Forest. These geographic regions would come to make up Anvil Hills. The kingdoms of Northlan and Westro formerly occupied this area, but with the War of Power and the losses these two kingdoms incurred, they fell into turmoil and were soon abandoned. A council of Dwarves and Men campaigned for support throughout the area, eventually gaining enough followers that Anvil Hills was established. Quickly, the council set up relations with Ameryst and Baramunz, in order to provide an even higher degree of security.

Even as a "civilized" kingdom, The Anvil Hills had a reputation as being a frontier land, where the less savory types of people tended to go to avoid problems or to stay close to trouble.
