Redania

Kingdom of Redania or shortly and most oftenly Redania, one of the Northern Kingdoms, is a wealthy realm which profits from trade and agriculture. The capital city of Redania is Tretogor. Oxenfurt, with the largest university in the Northern Realms, as well as the free city of Novigrad are also located in Redania. The kingdom's neighbours are Kovir, Caingorn, Kaedwen, Aedirn and Temeria.

For ages, Redania has fought a customs war with Temeria, its primary rival in the North. The country possesses the best intelligence network in the world. The government of Redania is also heavily influenced by sorceresses.

King Vizimir II of Redania was assasinated during the Second Nilfgaard War. During the interregnum, the country was ruled by a Regency Council headed by Sigismund Dijkstra, the head of Redanian Intelligence and Philippa Eilhart, head of the Lodge of Sorceresses.

In the Witcher 3, King Radovid V sent his troops to invade Kaedwen (in so called Winter War) and a declared a witch hunt to persecute mages while fighting against Nilfgaard.
