Barovia is the first domain with which the Demiplane of Dread and the Core began, arising from the heinous actions Strahd von Zarovich in 351 BC. Strahd has continued to rule the land and the dour Barovian people through a fake line of successive rulers all bearing his name. In 740 BC, the Grand Conjunction dissolved the neighboring land of Gundarak and caused part of it to be absorbed by Barovia. Strahd's political annexation of Gundarak has caused an ethnic strife that continues to inflame conflict between the ethnic Balok against the Gundarakites.

Titles

Barovia is, technically, a Kingdom, but the last King was never proper restored in name after Strahd's father was slain by invading Tergs. The top title thus has become Count, which is the title Strahd had when he repelled the invaders. This makes it a little strange compared to other similar countries in the Core, but it does work within it's own self.
