Corsairs' Sea

The Principality of the Corsairs' Sea was the northwestern principality of Tethyr, the official domain of the heir to the throne, and the original homeland of the Tethyrian tribes.

Geography
Located north of the Starspire Mountains, the principality encompassed the Dragon's Neck Peninsula and the Forest of Tethir. The territory officially contained three duchies&mdash;Cape Velen, Noromath, and Durmista &mdash;yet the latter two were not directly controlled by the queen, being the home of the elves of Wealdath.

Though it covered a large portion of land, most of the Principality of the Corsairs' Sea was forested and thus sparsely populated. The most notable city in the region was Velen.

Government
On paper, the principality was ruled in 1370 DR by the heir to the throne of Tethyr, the Princess Sybille Rhindaun. However, as she was only a small child at that time, her authority passed to her regent and father, King Haedrak Rhindaun III.

History
The founding twelve clans of Tethyr originated in this region.
