Nordemar

Nordemar is a fictional region that appears in the fantasy novel "The Dragon Reborn" by Robert Jordan, the third book in the Wheel of Time series. It is located in the northern part of the continent of Randland. The region is characterized by its harsh, cold climate and rugged terrain. Its inhabitants are known for their resilience and independent spirit, often described as hardy and practical people.

Historically, Nordemar has been a frontier territory, and its people have often been involved in conflicts with neighboring lands and creatures from the northern wilds. The geography of Nordemar includes vast forests, icy mountains, and windswept plains, making travel and settlement challenging. The primary settlements in Nordemar are often small and fortified, built to withstand the elements and potential threats. The culture of Nordemar is distinct, with its own traditions and a strong sense of community forged through shared hardship. While specific details about its political structure are not extensively detailed, it is implied to be a collection of independent or semi-independent lordships. Nordemar plays a role in the narrative as characters journey through it, encountering its unique environment and people.
