Nazair

Nazair is situated just south of the Amell Mountains, through which the Slopes and Riverdell can be reached via the Theodula Pass. North of Nazair lie Cintra and Upper Sodden, to the east is Mag Turga, the river Yelena borders the province to the south, and to the west is the Great Sea.

It was a kingdom around 1232 but then conquered by Nilfgaard, becoming a province of the empire. After Nilfgaard conquered the land, a big uprising raised, trying to kick the black ones out. Major General Markus Braibant sent there a unit commanded by Dacre Silifant and Ola Harsheim to calm the rebellion: the thing ended in a bloody massacre.

Coat of arms

The current is inspired by the Czech concept (the drawing) and designed by Juraj103 and might be considered as its crest before Nilfgaard took over.

Trivia

 * In the for, during Capture the Castle, the Nazairi soldiers use a great number of Dutch profanities; this includes rotzak ("scumbag"), schijtlijster ("coward"), stront ("shit") and piemellikkers ("cocksuckers"). They also use the word kusse, later explained by Regis to refer to a vagina. This is akin to Dutch kut and its older form kutte, which carry the same meaning (though kusse is more likely from Danish, where it means "pussy"). Most if not all of these words are very likely Nilfgaardian.
