Western Skyrim is a Nordic kingdom in Skyrim. It includes the holds of Haafingar, Hjaalmarch, and Karthald, and sits above the Greymoor Caverns section of the underground expanse known as Blackreach. Many past battles have given it a ravaged appearance and many ruins. Though currently inhabited primarily by Nords, the Elves who they replaced had resided there since time immemorial.
Much of the northern half of Skyrim is cold and covered in snow. However, the southern regions of the province are relatively mild.
