Bryndyd is one of several ancient giant cities, that is, cities founded in very ancient times by the Geddamin Giants and subsequently ruled by Neptultchi and Moigthe. Bryndyd is favorably poised in the north of the Sea of Asbardy, facing the mouths of the Rhaunve River which it historically has controlled. Bryndyd was first called 'Bambashathra' by the giants as reported in Kalaman records and then called 'Neptulxapxi' by the Tuadbe survivors of the Neptultchi Civilization. The Moigthe tribes of southwestern Pytharnia who occupied the site called it 'Birniadd' which has been translated into English as 'Bryndyd.' The year when Bryndyd, or rather ancient Bambashathra, was founded is unknown and some Kemerite legends ascribe its origin to before the Flood of Aturyanda.

Kemerite Giants

The ancient Kemerite giants established the settlement of Bambashathra, perhaps as late as the sixth millennium before Salmakhamer. The giants dominated the peninsula and used it as a base to control the commerce of the Rhaunve River. Trade existed between and Bryndyd and gigantine Amyrn. Kemerite rule of Bambashathra ended around 4300 AS with the Coming of the Neptultchi who landed near Bryndyd and conquered the Kemerite giants.

Neptulxapxi

Legends report that the Coming of the Neptultchi brought about the landing of their great shell city off the shore of Bryndyd and the Dragon Folk soon defeated the giants in battle. Their princes and chieftains invaded the city and began their conquest of southern Pytharnia, all in the late fifth millennium before Salmakhamer.

Late Tuadbe Period

In the late Tuadbe Period before the collapse of the Neptultchi God-Empire, desire for conquest and piratical activities in the Pallathantic Sea based in Bryndyd as well as other coastal cities, brought the Neptultchi into prolonged conflict and war with the rulers of ancient Kalama.

Congress of Bryndyd

Bryndyd already a world-class city received additional prestige by hosting the Congress of Bryndyd at the Basilica of Saint Treel. Bryndyd was chosen as an acceptable location for both Arathracian and non-Arathracian rulers of the Pallathantic Region. The Congress of Bryndyd was a formative event that led to the present-day modern world of politics. Numerous rulers and newly created states sent diplomats and delegations to the Congress.

Modern Bryndyd

Bryndyd is an important textile center. During the Middle Ages of Chaos, Bryndyd became famous throughout the Pallathantic Region as a center of fine embroidery. In the twenty seventh century (2600's), numerous titancraft textile factories were built in the city which established Bryndyd as a world textile producer.
