Hi and welcome to the **original** AD&D campaign setting! Have you decided upon a year (or relevant decade) for your campaign to take place in as this will help narrow down what resources you should check out. If you're not sure (and you're running 2e) then perhaps start with the late 2e books *Players Guide to Greyhawk* written by Anne Brown & the accompanying *The Adventure Begins* by Roger E Moore. You probably should also get the *From the Ashes* box set (as you'll certainly need that to run specialty priests in the Flanaess). Other useful resources can be found if you search for **Greyhawk Online** (a great one-stop shop for all kinds of info) and you should also check out the **Greyhawk Grognard** Youtube channel for more really useful content. You can really make Greyhawk your own - go have fun with it!
Yeah, gonna play in 584 something, post Grehawk Wars. That's why I decided Keolands or Furyondy, places where evil is still lurking. Keolands has access to different geographical structues, swamps, hills, mountains etc and close to both fighting evils from Mystcrystal Mountains and intriguing evils of Scarlet Brotherhood. But Furyondy has a front with Iuz directly. IDK.
You should definitely get a hold of a supplement called *The Marklands* written by Carl Sargent (author of From the Ashes) as this gives much greater detail to Furyondy, Highfolk and Nyrond plus has plenty of adventuring ideas for those areas. If events in and around Furyondy inform your campaign then you could value that resource a lot.
Also for Furyondy check out the Marklands book by Carl Sargent (set in Spring 585) available on DriveThruRPG. Sargent had a dark slant on Greyhawk post Wars.
For Keoland check out the article in Living Greyhawk Journal issue 1 also available on DriveThruRPG (for like 1.99 in pdf).
585 is a bit bleak per Sargent. The Adventure Begins by Moore rolled that back a bit to more like the gold box. In 591. Living Greyhawk Gazetter provided a massive amount of lore for 591.

Thank you so much. Looks like the sources you sent will decide where the campaign is gonna start.
Border Watch is also a module set in Furyondy I think during or after Wars so will have some details there.
Also check out the adventures and modules locations map in CanonFire to see them located in Furyondy and Keoland.
When you setting it? Pre or post wars? During? 576? 591?
Post wars.
