'''Angvar''' (pronounced as {{IPAc-en|'|ɒ|ŋ|v|ɒ|r|}} or more commonly {{IPAc-en|ɑː|ŋ|v|ɑː|r|}}), also called '''Eisenheim''' ({{IPAc-en|ʌ|ɪ|s|ɛ|n|h|ʌ|ɪ|m|}}) and officially styled the '''Imperial State of the Crown of Angvar''', (Angvarian: ''Dagh-gimbarathâz Snâgul Ânghavar''; Nemedian: ''Kaisertum der Krone des Eisenheims'') is a sovereign state composed of the mainland of the Cimmerian continent, the adjacent subcontinent of Acheron, the archipelago of Alarica in Brenonnia, and numerous quasi-autonomous overseas dependencies. With 246,988,552 square kilometres (95,362,813 square miles) spanning one-sixth of Earth's inhabitable landmass, Angvar is the second-largest country in the world by area. It is bound by the Boreal Sea on the north, the Obrisian Sea to the south, the Sea of Imucha’kk to the east, and the Gulf of Utgard to the west. It borders Ostenia to the west, the Rendusian Monarchy to the southwest, Sylvania to the south, and Seria to the southeast and east, while sharing maritime borders with Utgard in the northwest and Obristan to the south. Through its overseas holdings, it borders Ankin, Fúbù, Zhili and Jianqíng, the latter by way of the International Legation Zones in Seria; Baqet, Ngubu, Vulu, Kikuvu and Haziri in Maura; Pregonia and Wingchung in Middle Brenonnia; and New Tilgard, Dunfork, and Grame in Upper Brenonnia. In addition to its 69 governorates, 33 overseas dependencies, thirteen unincorporated territories and one capital city, there are two protected Union states, Infernia and Lower Totenheim. The westernmost and easternmost governorates of mainland Angvar are Weißheldenmark and Vladivoyna, respectively; whereas the overall northernmost point is Kaiser-Friedrich-Stadt and the southernmost being Los Island in the Australian Ocean. Angvar boasts an estimated population of 1.314 billion, making it the second-largest country in the world by population behind Seria. Its capital and largest city, Mordegard, is approximately 1,020 kilometres inland area, harboring a growing population of 442.5 million; the majority of which reside in the Greater Mordegard Area. Other major urban areas include Valenborg, the largest port city serving as a chief commercial and shipwrighting centre; Sebastople, Friedrichshof, Balzhed, Mortvien and Aljiba. | '''Angvar''' (pronounced as {{IPAc-en|'|ɒ|ŋ|v|ɒ|r|}} or more commonly {{IPAc-en|ɑː|ŋ|v|ɑː|r|}}), also called '''Eisenheim''' ({{IPAc-en|ʌ|ɪ|s|ɛ|n|h|ʌ|ɪ|m|}}) and officially styled the '''Imperial State of the Crown of Angvar''', (Angvarian: ''Dagh-gimbarathâz Snâgul Ânghavar''; Nemedian: ''Kaisertum der Krone des Eisenheims'') is a sovereign state composed of the mainland of the Cimmerian continent, the adjacent subcontinent of Acheron, the archipelago of Alarica in Brenonnia, and numerous quasi-autonomous overseas dependencies.

Although the continent of Cimmeria has been largely unsettled at least between 4000 and 2600 BCE, a confederacy of semi-nomadic peoples known as the Iron Horde arrived in the mainland by circa 2400 BCE from as far as Cold Transudelia. Having crossed through the Udel mountain range, they settled the Hyborian half of the mainland, interacting and somewhat intermingling with the indigenous tribes that predate them. From the Late Iron Age, the septs of the Iron Horde were organized into various warring kingdoms spanning between the Gulf of Utgard and the Lapetan Basin. Mentioned in Argosian and somewhat later Aurean texts in the 5th century BCE, they were encountered by Argosian merchant-traders who established colonies along the northern coast of the Lapetan Sea.
