Frogginham
An incredibly small kingdom in north of The Sickle that was only in existance for approximately six years. Founded by King Frogginham (the first and last), the kingdom's only viable resource was frogs.
The country poured unfathomable amounts of industry into the tourist and novelty food industries, and advertising of such - trying to manipulate the rest of Battal into thinking that Double-Dipped Frog's Legs were the world's greatest delicacy, and that Frog Watching was the most exciting sport imaginable.
Perhaps best remembered for their advertising campaign "Come to look at the Frogs, Stay to Eat the Frogs".
The only way the King managed to obtain and maintain power was through the use of a marginally powerful Wand he had discovered in a stump in his middle-age. The Kingdom came to its inevitable demise when King Frogginham's Vizier, Kafkaesque Backenstabben betrayed the King (as all Viziers do) and stole the wand and summoned a tidal wave of hot cocoa that sufforcated nearly the entire countryside of chocolate, aside from Vander Eyemless, who was the only member of the palace guard and happened to be in the loo at the time of the attack.
As everyone knows, the opposite of frog is chocolate, and thus the kingdom was left without a viable economic resource, and soon fell into ruin and obscurity.
The Chocolate Lake stands in place of Frogginham, with most of the ruins of the castle and town sunken in its chocolately depths, a delicious but not nutritious reminder of Backenstabben's evil. Ironically, Tourists find the Chocolate Lake far more appealing than they ever did a country famous for its deep-fried amphibians.

Well, the last year as shown in EFWQ 14 was precisely 1000 years after the end of the Magic Sword King's period, since Kafkaesque needed to kill the descendants of the King's Counsil before the millenial anniversary of the Longest Moment took place to gain the power of the swords. So 10,467 - 10,473 sounds right.
