Rel Mord is the capital of Nyrond. This great walled city on the Duntide River sports 34,200 to 46,500 people depending on your era. This is also where the sage Pluffet Smedger the Elder and the Royal University is located.
Nyrond is ruled from Rel Mord by King Archbold III (or his son King Lynwerd post-wars) and starting at any published Greyhawk timeline, the strain of war with the Great Kingdom and Iuz on either front wears on his stalwart kingdom. This is a nominally good realm yet constant political drama, massive war casualties, peasant poverty and droves of refugees moving out threaten to tear Nyrond as we know it apart.
