The second notable human Kingdom to look into is {{FRWiki|Thay}}. In short starting around 100 years ago this nation far to the East of Baldur's Gate came under the control of a necromancer wizard named {{FRWiki|Szass_Tam|Szass Tam}} after a civil war, and the nation is now known for comitting evil acts on the regular such as consulting with devils and evil gods. They implement slavery, but they also often use undead to conduct meanial day to day routines or to make up the bulk of the nation's army. More recently Szass Tam and his {{FRWiki|Red_Wizards_of_Thay|Red Wizards of Thay}} have attempted to take over foreign kingdoms across Faerun using discrete tactics with years of planning, usually wrecking absolute chaos when their plans come to fruition. There are some notable references to Thay in BG3 but it is difficult to tell how related they will be to the main plot if at all. The Red Wizards of Thay and Szass Tam are covered more in the D&D Honor Among Thieves movie.
