There are lots of people in Thedas. Those people often understand the value of working
together.
The following stat blocks represent the largest denominations of Thedas’ politics and borders.
These represent innumerable peoples and smaller Organizations that band together to
represent the people of an entire country when war comes or when the Blight returns to Thedas.
These should be used only if the nation come together against a common enemy (like the
darkspawn, or against the next qunari invasion!).
You may adjust these as needed, use them as backdrops for a campaign of war, as context for
the greatest heights that Organizations may reach, or even as targets for particularly malicious
campaigns of national espionage.
The Anderfels
Still haunted by the darkspawn, the Anderfels is a harsh place with a pious people watched over
by the legendary Grey Wardens.
Antiva
The wealthy nation of merchant princes is also home to Thedas’ greatest guild of assassins, the
House of Crows.

Ferelden
A young nation of warriors who love their dogs and potentially produced the prophet Andraste,
Ferelden is a place of strong wills and hearty people. Having fought off oppression from two
powerful nations and even weathered the Fifth Blight, Ferelden stands strong against nearly any
tide.

Nevarra
Nevarra is a powerful nation of many calls to fame. They inter their dead in the Grand
Necropolis, have had many grand dynasties and famous rulers like the Pentaghasts and the
Van Markhams, and have a long history of dragon-hunting. They were once a Marcher
city-state, but became their own nation to rival any in Thedas.
Orlais
Orlais is the center of Chantry power, the birthplace of the Chevaliers, and a bloody
battleground of elitist intrigue. Many Orlesians happily claim that the Grand Game, as they call
it, has claimed as many lives as the wars Orlais has fought and won. With a long history of
conquest, civil war, and war within, Orlais is not to be trifled with.
Orzammar
The largest current kingdom of the dwarves has seen better days. It carries on despite centuries
of attack by their darkspawn foes, and the constant, bloody turmoil of their rigid caste politics.
The dwarves are still industrious, and Thedas’ supplier of lyrium, so they remain far from
irrelevant.

Par Vollen
Par Vollen is the center of Qunari culture, and although it is not their birthplace, the Qunari
consider it to be their new home. The capital of Qunandar is said to be one of the wonders of
the world, and the intricate society of the Qunari works as a unified whole, with each person a
part of the greater creature that is the Qun.
Rivain
Rivain is a unique place with a clever and strong-willed people. A strange melting pot of Chantry
doctrine, Qunari discipline, and local ancient traditions, this matriarchal nation is also a favorite
port of raiders and those who terrorize the sea. The leaders of this nation are mages, calling
themselves Seers, and while they bow to the Chantry-worshipping monarchy, they practice
magic openly and guide the Rivani people as they always have.

future. Rivain may reroll a failed Growth test and take the second result.
The Tevinter Imperium
Tevinter once conquered all of Thedas, and its mark can still be seen in old ruins, standardized
currency, and even the Imperial Highway that stretches across the continent. Tevinter is not
what it once was, but it is still a might magocracy that stands as one of Thedas’ powerhouses.
Seheron
A jungle paradise once held by Tevinter, this nation has become a bloody battleground between
the Imperium and the Qunari. In the middle of this chaos are Tal-Vashoth and the local
Fog-Warriors who consider both sides enemies. The natives are mostly converted to the Qun,
but many resent all sides of this conflict, as Seheron has become shaped by war like no other
nation.
