Overview
Amn is one of the wealthiest realms of Faerûn. Before the Spellplague it held colonies in faraway Maztica; afterwards it still controlled important trade routes to Calimshan and Baldur's Gate and colonial ports in the Moonshaes and Chult.
Its natural resources and mercantile nature made it one of the great trading powers of the west.
