  • Mercia borders Morak and Nagast.
  • Mercia (altengl. mierce, myrce; dt. Mercien, auch Südhumbrien) war eines der sieben angelsächsischen Königreiche während der Heptarchie. Der Begriff selbst leitet sich ab von der germanischen Bezeichnung für „Grenzgebiet“. Die Landschaft wurde wahrscheinlich nach ihrer Lage zu den angrenzenden und im 6. Jh. nach Westen zurückgedrängten keltisch-britischen Königreichen benannt oder als Grenzland zwischen Northumbria und Südhumbrien aufgefasst.

  • Mercia is a kingdom in Albion that is ruled by Lord Bayard.
  • She reveals that her beau catches fish and stinks no matter how much he bathes, her mother crafts pots and her hands are terribly calloused as a result – and all of this leads to Mercia stating that at least she will spend 10 years on her backside, so she’s pretty “meh” about it because all work has something to be despised in her eyes.
  • Mercia's exact evolution from the Anglo-Saxon invasions is more obscure than that of Northumbria, Kent, or even Wessex. Archaeological surveys show that Angles settled the lands north of the River Thames by the sixth century. The name Mercia is Old English for "boundary folk" (see marches), and the traditional interpretation was that the kingdom originated along the frontier between the Welsh and the Anglo-Saxon invaders, although P. Hunter Blair has argued an alternative interpretation that they emerged along the frontier between the kingdom of Northumbria and the inhabitants of the Trent river valley.
  • Mercia is bordered from the rest of Terran (nicknamed the 'Fatallands') by a mountain range spanning across the length. Mercia sits in the middle of the Netherron Ocean, spanning from Terran to Bilan in the West. The Icelandic Sea is between Mercia and The Icelands in the north, the Soumos Sea is between Mercia and Mordirs in the South-West and the Dwarven Sea is situated at the bottom of the Fatalland Range spanning further than Dwynte yet it does not come into contact with the Netherron Ocean at all. __TOC__
