Alliance of Seventon

The Alliance of Seventon was a confederation south of the Narrow Sea in north Faerûn in the 4 millennium before Dale Reckoning. It was a precursor to the nation of Netheril.

History
The citizens of seven fishing villages on the Narrow Sea—Fenwick, Gers, Gilan, Gustaf, Moran, Nauseef, and Janick—sought mutual protection and chose to unite, forming the Alliance of Seventon. To mark and celebrate this union, they created the Netheril Year calendar, with the year of founding being 0 NY (−3859).

The shaman king Nether the Elder of Gers demanded ever greater tributes from the seven villages. In 3 NY (−3859), the alliance expanded into an empire named Netheril, meaning "Nether's Land", now a kingdom under Nether's rule.

After the alliance expanded to become an empire, the name "Seventon" was from then on used as the location of the original group of villages.
