	First introduced as a concept in {{CDA}}, the Great Outdoors fleshes out a hitherto great big void on the old Discworld Mapp running from the [[Rammerock Mountains]] and [[NoThingfjord]] rimward out to the sea widdershins of [[Kythia]]. It covers some two thousand miles of open space, and is described as a patchwork haven of many disparate refugee groups fleeing from trouble or persecution elsewhere on the Disc; possibly a place to bring your tired and huddling masses who are yearning to breathe free, sundry wretched refuse of assorted teeming shores, and those who are generally homeless and tempest-tost. Or who have simply had it up to ''here'' with the storied pomp of ancient lands and all the grief it's capable of causing.

	The religious, ethnic and linguistic groupings are many and varied, ranging from [[Omnia\|The Very, Very, Very Plain Omnians]] of the [[Slaked Plains]] to refugees from [[Borogravia]] who fled over the border to excape [[Nuggan]]ism and conscription into the endless wars. They settled along the line of the New Kneck River, which apparently does not move much, a point in its favour. Dwarfs and humans from [[NoThingfjord]] fled here and set up the nearest thing to a capital city, New Nothing, to escape interminable and compulsory Sagas. ~~Apparently~~ [[One-Man-Bucket\|~~ferocious natives live here too, who don~~'~~t go a bundle on incursions from palefaces~~]].

Presumably someone lived there before these [[Trespassers' Society\|trespassers]], too--perhaps this, rather than [[Howondaland]], is where [[One-Man-Bucket\|One-Man-Bucket's]] family actually came from?

	There is no government as known elsewhere and no common currency: a complex trading and barter system takes its place. The people are described as linked by a common deep paranoia, mistrust of authority and slowness to accept strangers. Hmm.
