The Kingdom of Thalland was one of many petty realms existant before the founding of the Great Kingdom of Aerdy. It was created by the Thallari sub-tribe of the Aerdi people. The Thallari worshiped all the Oeridian gods, but held Heironeous above all others.

The exact location of Thalland is the subject of some dispute. Bastion of Faith claims it was in the Harp River valley, while the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer claims it gave its name to the Thelly River.

History

The time of Thalland's height is unclear. Bastion of Faith claims it was 303 CY, but this is impossible because the Great Kingdom was long-established in the region at that point (and, indeed, had been since -216 CY (428 OR)). It was more likely either -303 CY or 303 OR.

Thalland warred with the equally ancient Medegian Bladelands, their conflicts eventually exhausting one another to the point that the fledgling Kingdom of Aerdy conquered them both. Of Thalland, no trace remains.
