[QUOTE="Ltheb Silverfrond, post: 4549390, member: 39867"] To be honest, it depends on the game you want to run, and your style of running a game. I started (back in 3E) writing my setting, which was innitially a single country, with some sketched out nobles, plots, and factions. As I ran more games in the setting, it has slowly been creeping out and other countries have been mentioned and visited, but he focus and the bulk of the information is about the innitial country from the first game. If you design like this, keeping things cannon is a bit of a concern; country A can't have a western coastline and then the next game, theres a (non-merfolk) country on A's western border. However you do it, cater to your style of DMing. Don't note information on things you typically improv, and research things that you stumble upon when running.
