The Counterweight Continent
Believed by the inhabitants of Ankh-Morpork to be overflowing with gold, what the Counterweight Continent lacks in size it makes up in mass. This is the realm of the Agatean Empire, ruled by an Emperor and contested over by five warring families...
A tourist from the Agatean Empire, Twoflower, once left the safety of home for the land of blood-sucking ghosts - Ankh-Morpork! Ankh-Morpork! So good they named it Ankh-Morpork! On his return, he wrote an 'innocent' little book entitled "What I Did on my Holidays"... What happened next? See Interesting Times.
