the Northern Kingdoms

The Northern Kingdoms, also referred to as the Northern Realms, are a group of human states north of the Amell mountains. Their inhabitants are called Nordlings by the Nilfgaardians (both the ones from Empire's core, and from the conquered provinces). Aside from humans, a number of dwarves, elves, gnomes and halflings live in the Northern Kingdoms as second-class citizens.

For centuries, many kingdoms and principalities of the North have been invaded and some successfully conquered by the southern Empire.
