I just noticed these 3 nations on the LEOF map. Does anyone have any further info on them?
DarDATH makes me wonder if it has anything to do with JhaamDATH which is named after its founder......

Ed's 2e City of Ravens Bluff accessory has some details on Vastar.
Dardath was the dwarven component of Phalorm, the "Fallen Kingdom".
I don't recall reading anything about Songfarla. It may be an older reference...

The Hidden Kingdom of Songfarla is mentioned in Garl Glittergold's entry in Demihuman Deities.
I want to know more about the Cloudlands of Avaeraether (Lost Empires p. 134) -- it's not a reference I recognized. |

Thanks to Eric Boyd: Elminster's Ecologies: The Stonelands and the Goblin Marches, p.23-24.

Im tempted to try and throw together a list of all the names on the map
A simple entry like this
Name of Empire
Race or races living in Empire
When It was founded
When it ceased to exist
*throws it on my to do list* |
“I am the King of Rome, and above grammar”
Emperor Sigismund
"Its good to be the King!"

| Hmmm... I sold my Demihuman Deities book a few years ago in a moment of stupidity. Could anyone summarize the Songfarla info provided in that tome? Please feel free to PM or email me if you prefer this to posting the info here (although this would be a service to the Candlekeep community, seeing that there will be no gnomes in 4E and that this info will die with 3E / remain in the 2E archives...) |

Yes, I have 349. I hope to get my hands on DD *again* at some point though... 
In the meantime, can anyone PM me with anything juicy found in DD that is *not* mentioned in Dragon 349?
Cheers! |

Just looking over it there doesn't seem to be a whole lot more than what was covered in the Horde article. Except for the giant nugget that sits in the city that they purchased the land with, and the caverns of gems around it.
Myth Dyraalis, the hidden elven/gnomish city in the forest of Mir sound intriguing though . . . |

Gnomes will be in 4E, just not as player races (yet). |
