| | Caledonia: A Light in the North |
 | | Caledonia is divided among the following lands: the Kingdom of Alban, the Northern Islands, and the Borders, which include the Kingdom of Strathclyde, Galloway, and the northern portions of the Kingdom of Northumbria. |
 | | Strathclyde is the last British kingdom in the north, centered on the great keep on Dumbarton Rock, a stronghold in which they successfully resisted the attacks of Picts, Scots, and Angles. |
 | | Centuries ago it was part of the British kingdom of Rheged, but when that kingdom fell to the Angles it became something of a no-man's land, claimed by Strathclyde to the north, Northumbria to the east, and the Isle of Man (to which the heirs of Rheged had fled) to the south. |
