The Barony of Fórntida Kærleikalanden was a subdivision of the Duchy of Elwynn, with (the former) Duke Harald of Froyalan serving as its Baron.
History
The Barony of Fórntida Kærleikalanden existed from 1536 to 1542 in the dark days that Elwynn was called Froyalan. The aforesaid Barony briefly returned to existence in the year 1545 when the Kaiser by decree undid Duke Ardashir II Moqtada al-Osmani's county-fication, which had abolished all Baronies in the Land between the Rivers, restoring the Baronies to prior status. The counties of Fórntida Kærleikalanden included Cimmeria, Wintergleam and Bjorngard. It was established by means of an Act of Landsraad.
