World Gazetteer
In the Fourth Age there are not nearly as many nations and kingdoms as there were in the Third Age. There are few wars between realms sharing borders. Most of the existing kingdoms are free to expand freely - if have the strength to so, for claiming land and holding onto it requires military power. Many realms of today are mere cities or towns protected by walls, with a king or lord in rule, while others are tribal territories with a few villages dotting the landscape.
Regions
The Western Lands are divided into seven large regions.
