History
This region's southern border was set by the Pontar river until 1215, when the powerful Mansfeld family that lived in this region chose to invade their southern neighbor, Aedirn, and proclaimed the new southern border was now at the Dyfne river. Aedirn's king, Videmont, fought back and eventually drove the Mansfelds back across the Pontar. However, this conflict would end up causing the two kingdoms to have skirmishes for decades along this contested border.
Second Northern War
Once a part of Kaedwen, the long disputed region, in late July 1267, during the Second Northern War, was awarded to Henselt after the fall of Aedirn and his treaty with Emperor Emhyr var Emreis. The Dun Banner, along with five other brigades, were sent to occupy the region, and to meet Nilfgaard at the Dyfne should tensions sour.
The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings
In The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, Lormark is once again the subject of dispute between Henselt and Aedirn. In the game, if Geralt aligns himself with Iorveth, Vergen manages to repel the Kaedweni aggressors and Saskia with her advisor Philippa and Henselt agree to a truce. Upper Aedirn is formed with Saskia as the head of the nation.
If Geralt aligns himself with Roche, Kaedwen wins the day and takes the Pontar Valley.
Upper Aedirn has valuable resources such as coal, silver mines, numerous factories, and white marble.
