[edit] Geography
Brythunia is located north of Corinthia and Nemedia, west of the Border Kingdom, and south of Hyperborea. The nation's borders are defined by mountain ranges on all sides except for its borders with Nemedia, which is defined by the Yellow River. The land is hilly and covered with forests, and is fairly fertile.
[edit] History and politics
Little is known about Brythunia from Conan's advetures because he spent little time here. It is likely that Brythunia has a monarchy, and is ruled primarily by local lords. One thing that is known is that Brythunia is constantly raided by brigands and slave-takers.
[edit] Population and culture
Brythunians are primarily of Hyborian stock. It is known that they tend to have blue eyes and blond hair. Their women are often of surpassing beauty, and are often favoured of slavers in foreign nations. Being so close to Cimmeria and especially Hyperborea, the people must be constantly ready to fight raiders. Brythunians usually worship Mitra, although it seems possible that small cults might still worship Bori, the founder of the Hyborian people.
