This template is for use in any article about a political entity such as nation, country, kingdom, or empire (and provinces or other parts of a realm) within the World of Greyhawk campaign setting.

Usage

Copy and paste the section below at the top of the article and fill in the information areas. The image and caption parameters are optional, but are preferred.

The recommended image size is a width of 250px so that it will completely fill the infobox without increasing its size.

If any fields are left undefined they will not appear.

Add wiki links by putting a word or phrase inside double brackets, [[like this]], especially to lines like:

• region
• races
• religions
• ruler and authority
• capital or towns
• organizations
• allies
• enemies

Do not add wiki links to alignments.

For dates, only the numeric value of a year is necessary. "CY" will be appended automatically and a link created to the article for that year.

The "name" is only necessary if it is notably different than the page name. It will be automatically generated if it is not entered.
