Tethyr
Tethyr recently emerged from a decades-long civil war (1347-1369 DR) with two new monarchs. The strong rule of Queen-Monarch Zaranda Star Rhindaun and King Haedrak III (who formerly served the great Elminster of Shadowdale as a scribe under the name of "Lhaeo") began to restore hope to a cynical, suspicious, war-torn land.
Tethyr was a growing nation, establishing ties with hesitant neighbors, and driving monsters from its lands. There continued to be much suspicion in the land, especially towards organizations that admitted to meddle in the affairs of others, such as the benevolent Harpers or sinister Zhentarim.
Tethyr's large forests were home to a population of wood elves, who are ever wary of human rulers wishing to tame their forest with torch and axe.
Tethyr is bordered to the north by Amn and to the south by Calimshan, while the pirates of the Nelanther Isles harried the kingdom's maritime commerce, such as trade vessels bound for far-off Maztica.
