Sylvania, a beautiful land of grim moors and dark forests.
Sylvania is located between Stirland, The Moot and the Worlds Edge Mountains (centre right, between the two rivers).

Sylvania is an extremely poor backwater of Stirland, being the homeland of the ancient Fennones 1a.


In former times it was a semi-independent province ruled by the Counts of Sylvania. The marriage of Isabella von Drak to Vlad von Carstein led to the Wars of the Vampire Counts, in which three successive Vampire Counts tried and failed to conquer The Empire.

The last count, Mannfred von Carstein, was slain by Martin, the Elector Count of Stirland, and Sylvania was annexed by Stirland.


Sylvania is currently unofficially ruled by the recently resurrected Mannfred von Carstein.
