Turmish

Country Region Realmspace Toril Faerûn Vilhon Reach Forgotten Realms

Turmish was a democratic republic located northwest of the Vilhon Reach on the Sea of Fallen Stars . It was a densely populated nation, famous for its mercenary companies and fair-dealing merchants that traded across all of Faerûn . Despite the fame of its hireswords, the country itself was peaceful, prosperous, and civilized. Turmish had a good reputation, with its warriors, and merchants especially, being respected and well-liked. Its welcoming people, peaceful nature, fertile countryside, and focus on commerce over warfare earned it the nickname of the "heartland of the Reach" across the Inner Sea, but for being something of an "overlooked backwater", it was known as "The Land of Surprises". While Turmish suffered many hardships in the Wailing Years after the Spellplague , it recovered admirably following the Second Sundering and the ending of the Great Rain in the late 15 th century DR .
