DnD World
A continent named Ealador (Ea-la-dor), composed of eight kingdoms:
Fairway, Alevale, Whitelea, Valhedge, Wyvernmil, Janley, Springryffin.
While most don't know of the kingdoms start, it theorizes that it has been millennia simply due to the records that have grown in the palace libraries. It also has been theorized that they all started at the same time, again due to records of the past. Most accept it as fact dimply due to the longstanding peace between all eight and the old trade routes that have only grown in strength as years have pasted. The layout of the routes are fascinating for a arcane standpoint but nothing certifiable has ever been decided.
