Troll Country
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Troll Country is the name of a region in Games Workshop's Warhammer Fantasy fictional universe.
Troll Country is situated to the north, above Kislev. Due to the fact that it is situated close to the north pole of the Warhammer world and the great Chaos Waste it has been greatly influenced by Chaos. Nobody can lay a claim on the land, because it is infested with all kinds of beast, such as Beastmen, Trolls and other creatures born of Chaos such as the Spawn of Chaos. Warbands of Chaos worshippers (see Hordes of Chaos) fight each other and the armies of the Tzar or Tzarina of Kislev as they attempt to cross this wasteland in their efforts to raid the fertile lands of the Empire to the South.
The only humans remaining in Troll Country are the "Roppsmen" - semi-nomadic peoples related to the northen tribes who were the original inhabitants of the area known as Kislev. The Roppsmen were forced out by migrating Gospadars who settled and then in turn invaded and conquered by the present rulers of Kislev - the Ungols - of which the present Tzarina Katarin is a member.
