The Kingdom of Nieland is the largest and second most populous autonomous region within the United Kingdom of Isselmere-Nieland. Apart from the newly acquired colony of Cerovia, Nieland is the most recent acquisition of the Crown, one which was thankfully achieved through marriage and diplomacy rather than battle and murder, as was so common within the United Kingdom's past.
Redhaven
Redhaven is the capital of Nieland. It received its name from a horrible battle between Viking settlers and Anguistians they were dispossessing. After three days of hard battle, the Anguistians, plagued by an Isselmerian invasion to the east, were forced to withdraw and were later unable to dislodge the Viking interlopers from the area.
