The year is 1066. This is a map of the northern Holy German Empire and surroundings. Marked in dark green, the provinces of Frisia and Ostfriesland have just become counties. Priorly part of the personal demesne of the Duke of Lower Lorraine, Godfried d'Ardennes, the two counties were created as a gift to a loyal courtier.
This is the County of Frisia. At a distance, the Hill Fort is the sole reminder of civilization in this sparsely populated, rural province.
The recently built fort provides troop support at a small cost.
Frisia is mostly populated by catholic, dutch peasants. It is a poor county, with an initial base income of 1.20 gold.
