Editing The Empire (Warhammer Fantasy) (section)

===Former Provinces===
* '''Solland''' - Solland was destroyed as an independent Imperial province <span style='color:green;font-size:115%'> BY DA GREAT WAAARGH Gorbad Ironclaw, ONE OUV DA GREETEST AND GREENEST WARBOSS</span>. Its territory was ultimately absorbed by Wissenland. The fate of Solland and its people is a sore point for a lot of Wissenlanders, so much that their banner has the white lion waving the flag of Solland, as a show of respect. Probably based on post-hussite Bohemia.
* '''Westerland''' - The province that was the seat of the great commercial city of Marienburg that seceded from the Empire. The province is now known as the Wasteland, though the Marienburgers prefer the free League of the West. Obviously based on the Low Countries. Was briefly known as 'Vesterland' when Norse Chaos Marauders conquered and ruled it for a brief time. Between Norscan, Brettonnian, and Imperial raids and the huge amount of marshland, very little of its territory is suitable for agriculture. Its people make their living by trade, mining, and fishing. Based on the Low Countries (Netherlands, Luxembourge and Belgium).
* '''Sylvania''' - Sylvania was formerly the County of Sylvania, an independent Imperial province, but after the events of the Vampire Wars is now officially a part of the Grand County of Stirland. No other province of the Empire wants the place. To tell the truth, Stirland doesn't much want it either. The province has long been the staging ground for vampiric attempts at the Imperial throne after the von Carsteins took control of its nobility. In an action disregarded by everyone after his death, Mannfred seceded Sylvania from the Empire. It's now Nagash's playground, inhabited by some of the world's most paranoid peasants and filled with more spooky shit than a ghost's outhouse. Obviously based on Transylvania.
* '''Drakwald''' - A founding province of the Empire located near the center of the Drakwald Forest, now divided up between Middenland and Nordland. Was known for its two incompetent Emperors. The first was Ludwig the Fat, who gave the elder of the Moot an electoral position after a halfing chef made the finest meal for his fat arse (while simultaneously getting revenge on the Elector Counts of Stirling and Averland, whose daughters refused to sleep with him). The other being his son Boris Goldgather (also known as Boris the Incompetent for obvious reasons), who was known for being greedy and got his arse shiv'd by a sneaky Eshin rat during the Skaven's plague invasion. The province was finally disbanded by Mandrad Skavenslayer after these two atrocities. Sigmar bless you.

At times, other parts of the Old World were under Imperial control, but were later lost and not recovered as other nations established themselves. Examples are the West Mark in what would later become Parravon, Lichtenberg in what would later become the Border Princes, and parts of what would later become Kislev. Few of these acquisitions lasted long.
