Dhirim is a town of the Kingdom of Swadia. It is initially owned by Lord Mirchaud in classic Mount&Blade and Count Clais in Warband.
A centrally located town situated on a bluff at the frontier of Swadia, sharing a border with several rivaling factions. In peacetime, Dhirim is one of the richest towns in Calradia due to its positioning. Caravans from all factions travel to this Swadian merchant hub. In wartime, however, Dhirim is a prime target for attack, being threatened by three other kingdoms, having surrounding villages frequently looted, thus making recruitment difficult. Dhirim must be well garrisoned for the player to keep ownership of this town, as opposing factions will often besiege Dhirim first when wars start.
Territory[]
Mount&Blade[]
Dhirim is in the eastern third of Swadia, bordering the Kingdom of Nords to the northwest, the Kingdom of Vaegirs to the northeast, and the Khergit Khanate to the southeast.
Its villages are Azgad, Balanli, Nemeja, and Ushkuru.
Warband[]
Dhirim is in the middle of Calradia, surrounded by the Kingdom of Vaegirs and the Nords to the north, the Khergit Khanate to the east, the Kingdom of Rhodoks to the west, and the Sarranid Sultanate to the south.
Its villages are Amere, Burglen, Tshibtin, Ushkuru, and Yalibe. With five each, Dhirim and Shariz are the towns with the most villages.

Guild master location
The Guild Master in Dhirim is located just outside the keep on a terrace, which is a straight walk when 'Take a walk around the streets' is selected. The quickest way to reach him is to go to the castle, then leave via the door instead of the tab key, at which point he will be almost directly in front of the player.
Dhirim is one of two towns (Suno is the other) that does not have a door to the arena accessible from the streets. If the player enters the arena, and then uses the exit in the arena to reach the streets, the player will find themselves out of bounds, embedded within the buildings of the city. From there, they can escape the intended boundaries of the town and explore the entire map.
Siege[]
Besieging Dhirim requires the construction of a siege ladder in classic Mount&Blade, but a siege tower in Warband, making it a harder target.
Tournaments[]
If you take part in a Tournament in Dhirim, you may be assigned any of the following sets of equipment:
- Lance & Shield
- Bow & Arrows, Dagger
- Sword & Shield
- Axe & Shield
- Heavy Sword
Not all participants are on horses.
Leaving the arena through the door will put the player out of bounds. See Layout above.
Economy[]
Dhirim produces:
Dhirim sells cheap iron on occasion but not as cheaply as Curaw. Tools, Leatherwork, and Wool are also cheap here.
Dhirim and its nearby villages can be described as the "Breadbasket of Calradia" due to the insane amounts of grain produced in this region. Dhirim is a good place to build a brewery in Warband because grain in nearby villages is dirt cheap. This means those villages are also excellent strategic supply points for you to very cheaply load up your army with lots of grain and bread for your military campaigns.
Dhirim's prosperity can recover quickly during peacetime, largely due to the above average number of villages surrounding it and the distance of those villages from the normal spawn locations of bandit camps.
