The Earldom of Linth is a region of Keoland.
History
The Earldom of Linth dates back to the establishment of the kingdom in -342 CY.
Geography
Borders
The Earldom of Linth is located in central Keoland, south of the capital of Niole Dra. It is bordered to the east by the Barony of Riverwatch, south by the Earldom of Gand and Barony of Sayre, west by the March of Blerfield, and northwest by the County of Nimlee.
To the northeast, the Earldom of Linth is divided by the Sheldomar River from the Duchy of Ulek. Just across its northern border is the Silent Tower, located in the Royal District of the capital city.
Notable settlements
The town of Segor rests on the banks of the Sheldomar River. It is the capital of the province, and its population is counted at 4,540 as of 591 CY.
Notable locations
The fields in the far north of the Earldom, those nearest the Silent Tower south of Niole Dra, are barren and deserted. This may be due to the infamously superstitious nature of Keoish farmers.
