At least I can't think of one like that off the top of my head though I know there was a small kingdom one in the timeline book at one point. I can't think of their red assassins secret society from the jungles. It does have vikings and arabs like Greyhawk but I didn't really get a Waterdeep = Greyhawk = Lankhmar vibe though that is a matter of taste and I could see people going either way.Ravenloft is a kitchen sink setting. The mishmash of gothic horror trope lands and evil D&D settings didn't feel like Greyhawk to me.Oathbound with its mashup of other fantasy D&D settings did not feel like Greyhawk.Twin Crowns with its Age of Sails and Fantasy Earth Kitchen Sink did not feel like Greyhawk. It called to mind D&D fantasy real world countries, not Greyhawk. Similarly for Swashbuckling Adventures/7th Sea.Hyboria, even with desert Kozaks and Aesir and Vanaheim and even fallen Atlanteans seemed a distinct kitchen sink. I am less familiar with all the specifics of Eberron, does it have arabs and vikings, fiend ruled empire, red assassin organization, etc.? Is Sharn evocative of Greyhawk City but just with flying buildings?</blockquote>
