The Damescrown is the northern-most part of the Anbennar Empire, and is home to various Anbennari princes and republics, over whom the Kingdom of Gawed looms. Along its northern border the Damescrown meets the Alenic Frontier to the north-east and the Dragon Coast to the north-west. To the west lies the Small Country and West Dameshead further south, and to the east the Forlorn Vale with Esmaria further south. The region encircles the north of the Dameshead Sea, giving the region its name.
The region is home to a variety of cultures, with Imperial Halfling, Alenic Vertesker, and Anbennarian, Uelairey and Crownsman enjoying the riches that flow through the region into the Dameshead.
Politically and economically the countries of Beepeck, Uelaire, Vertesk, and Damescrown vie to dominate the region, but keep a wary eye to the north.
