The '''Iron Islands''', also known as '''the Iron Isles''' or the '''Kingdom of the Iron Isles''', are a harsh and storm-lashed archipelago off the western coast of Westeros. Once ruled by ~~rock, salt,~~ and High Kings chosen in kingsmoots, the isles came under the rule of hereditary Kings of the Iron Islands after the [[Slaughter of Nagga's Hill]], when [[Urron Greyiron]] abolished the title of High King. The Iron Islands are home to the ironborn, a fierce seafaring people who pride themselves on their unyielding nature. The isles themselves are small, rocky, and only thinly fertile, with frequent storms, grey skies, and restless seas. <ref name="IronIslands">George R. R. Martin, ''The World of Ice and Fire'', (London: HarperVoyager, 2014) pp. 175-178</ref>
