Nordhame

Terrain and People
A huge peninsula north from Grau Falk and then south again in the Eastern Outer Ocean. Nordname is home to large populations (relatively speaking) of Dwarves and of the Northmen. A center spine of mountains is surrounded by low and higher hills all the way to the coast, which is heavily cut with fjords on the south-projecting arm. There are hundreds of “kingdoms” – every Northman lord styles himself a king unless infeued to another – in the peninsula, which runs about 4000km West to East and about 2500km north to south.

Risks (To Combine)
Principally raiders.

Military
Unknown but considerable, especially at sea; a possible major scouting/raiding naval force.

Economic
Unknown except that furs come south. The Nordhame also produces a large percentage of the timber suitable for shipbuilding; the Illyr trade for it and move a high percentage of such timber (as well as using it themselves) but the locals also move and sell it. Ship chandler supplies (tar and pitch, cordage and other essential supplies) come almost exclusively from Nordhame. Alternate sources would profit the Draconic peoples.

The mountains of Nordhame likely contain minerals, but these peoples (dwarves excepted) do little mining. The dwarves of Nordhame do not ship large quantities of minerals out, which suggests they may not have developed such resources due to lack of a local market.

Political
Nothing written.

Additional Information
There have been times when all of Nordhame was unified in history, but it never lasts. A dwarf who claims to be the King of Dwarves resides here.
