Summarized from The Greyhawk Wars boxed set.
The Church of the Iron Nation is dedicated to Hextor, the god of Tyrrany, War and Massacres. It is also the state church of The Great Kingdom.
During the Greyhawk Wars, the Church split into two, an event called the Iron Schism. Each faction followed a strong a charismatic leader, each of whom in turn favored a different claiment to the Throne of Aerdy.
