Background: Northwestern Kara-Tur ( Map #1), often referred to as Drannor, consists of seven regional dukedoms: Saint Germaine, Saint William, Saint Norbert, Luxor, Saint Cuthbert, Saint Vincent, and Nottingham. Smaller townships and villages outside the immediate area of each pay taxes to the nearest Duke, and often to more than one, allowing their allegiance to be extorted without any fuss. Four centuries ago, King Drannor united the seven dukedoms, but the central government in Nottingham disintegrated after the King's death.
