Norholt
Ruled by: Queen Elizabeth Yates
Order of Succession: As Elizabeth is Norholt’s first monarch this is unclear. However, it seems likely that Prince Greyhame and the Council of Barons would have some say in her successor.
The rugged and rainy region of Norholt stood for many years as the only principality in the land. However, it has recently taken its place in the story of Albion, becoming a kingdom under the newly appointed Queen Elizabeth Yates. Not only does the fey Prince Greyhame, known as “The Wyvern”, continue to command influence and respect, many of the decisions for the direction of Norholt also go through the council of twelve Barons and it is no easy task to ensure they all see eye to eye.
Due to the majority of Norholt being mountainous and populated by fantastical creatures, land is at a premium and as such the population is small, with only a few settlements and one major city - Norholt itself. Despite their nation’s small size, Norholtians are fiercely independent, hardworking and dutiful people - attributes that lend themselves to the quarrying and fishing trade from which the majority of Norholt’s wealth is derived. They are also very proud of the Library of Norholt, one of the foremost seats of learning in the known world.
