Please consider using Template:Infobox RegionData instead, which automatically fetches the relevant and always-correct data from the game engine itself. Use this template for historical pages where the region data is no longer available (e.g. the sunk south islands).

To convert, use the "image" property - the first number is the world-id, the second the region-id.

Realm Talerium


In the heart of the western Badlands, nestled in the mountains and surrounded by hot sand, lies the great citadel, Chocxal. Outsiders consider it stark, spartan, and bleak, even forbidding. The people of Talerium, however, think of their capital fondly, as a place of festivals and culture, of rich traditions and a marketplace brimming with exotic foods and luxuries.

The layout of the city is based around defense, with dozens of narrow alleys and cul-de-sacs designed to confuse and divert invading armies. Foreigners visiting the city for even the tenth time often have to hire guides just to get around. The stronghold extends up into the hills and onto the cliff-face, where the most important buildings lie, including the Prime Minister's residence, the Ducal palace, the chambers of the Talerium Council, and the Hall of Heroes, where many of Talerium's exalted warriors are honored, and where the Crown of Talerium is kept as a reminder of Talerium's days as a monarchy, long since passed.

The current Duke of Chocxal is Lord Sanchez Domingo, who was appointed to the position after retiring from politics.
