The land of Dúrandwor comprises a sloping strip of land in southern Pytharnia from the Pallathantic Sea to the Mathgefrew Mountains. Dúrandwor is a geographic description and not a state. Most of Dúrandwor is within the Kingdom of Thrain. The western portion makes up the Duchy of Ogentir which is part of the Empire of Magdala. Dúrandwor has a long heritage of Moigthe Tribes who were subjected by the Midretassene Empire. The language spoken throughout Dúrandwor is Dúrandworese and it is related to Tassan and Throvian by common descent from ancient Midretassene. Dúrandwor like much of the Pallathantic was part of the Yophenthean Empire. In very ancient times, Dúrandwor was ruled by Geddamin Giants and later by the Neptultchi.

Dúrandwor slopes steadily from the sea to the Mathgefrew Mountains. The climate is moderately temperate with little or no snow in the winter, except in and near the mountains. The summers are warm and humid. The chief cities are Verdida, the capital of Thrain, Paddarvi, the ruling seat of Ogentir, Glithmacuma, Andribeda, Smaye Glame, Opponoppe, Math Ontair, and Mevadapin.
