Middenland is a province of The Empire. The eastern border of Middenland is composed of both the River Reik and the Talabec River, Nordland borders the north-western part of Middenland while the northeastern border is Hochland and to the west lies The Wasteland and Marienburg. The southern part of Middenland borders Reikland.

Middenland is a place of poor soil and comprised primarily of forest. Thus farming is not widely spread. Because of huge amount of forest in Middenland there are many Beastmen pillage and threatening the villages and towns. Middenland is one of the most important provinces of the Empire and as such many Emperors have come from here.

The current Elector Count of Middenland is Graf Boris Todbringer who is a fierce and loyal supporter of Karl Franz, the current Emperor of The Empire. Middenland is renowned for its fierce warriors and followers of Ulric.

Located within Middenland is the provincial capital of Middenheim. It is a huge city located atop of a flat mountain and a centre of worship for followers of Ulric because of the chief temple of Ulric. It is also from Middenheim that the fierce Knights of the White Wolf and Teutogen Guards marches out to meet the invaders of Middenland.

Another major city located in Middenland is Carroburg. It lies to the south of the province, near the River Reik and not far from Altdorf and is famous for its Greatsword regiments. It has been the site of many internal nobility conflicts and has been made the provincial capital several times, although the power has always returned to Middenheim. Because of its location it has been influenced greatly by its relations with Reikland. It has also been the scene of a battle against the Skaven where the Steam Tank Von Zeppel was engaged. Other features of the land of Middenland are the Drakwald Forest, containing a large population of Wood Elves, the Ancient Dragon Cave, and the Midden Moors. With such a lot of dark places it is not surprising that the people worship Ulric over Sigmar.
