Ankaram

Duchy Ankaram was the territory of Tethyr bordering Calimshan in the south.

Ankaram was located between the River Ith and the River Memnon. It was bordered by the Sea of Swords in the west and the Forest of Mir in the east.

Before the Tethyrian Interregnum, this duchy was known as Ankramir. After Queen Zaranda Star rose to power in 1369 DR, Ankaram was considered a part of the Principality of Ankramir, which also included Kamlann and the Purple Marches. The duchy contained two counties, Calimmon and Monteshi, the later of which included Monrativi Teshy Mir, an area of contention between Calimshan and Tethyr.

The region was sparsely populated but included several well-guarded forts along the border, so Calimshan was cautious about ever attacking it.

Duchess Vajra Valmeyjar ruled Ankaram, officially from her castle Maratimmir 30 miles east of the city of Myratma.

Ankramir was the location of two of the most dangerous adventuring sites of Tethyr, the ruined cities of Shoonach and Memnonnar.
