The clues and statements made by Robert E. Howard about his various nations serve as a springboard for the imagination. As even a casual perusal of The Hyborian Age shows¸ these are not stagnant cultures¸ forever framed by a single phrase in a story. These cultures and kingdoms should live and breathe. Borders should change and waver. Every Games Master should not fear to put a bit of himself into this world. Take Howard's seeds and see what grows from your own imagination. Not everyone's Aquilonia needs to be the same¸ with the same borders and culture. If you want Aquilonia to wipe Nemedia off the map¸ then do it. If you want Tarantia to burn to the ground¸ then let it burn. Just because some Nemedian scribe hyped up Conan to be the greatest hero of the age¸ don't let that stop your players from being greater.
Let the Hyborian Age live and never let it stagnate. We are the kings of the world tonight!
