Asgard is the world of the Gods and Goddesses, those being of divine nature that are benevolent towards mankind, some of whom were involved in the creation of humanity and who are still involved in the affairs of mankind. Interestingly, it is mentioned by name only once in the poetic Eddas (Hymiskvitha, st 7). The name occurs more frequently in the Prose Edda, where it has been thinly Euhemerized as the city of Troy.
In Asgard is Hlidskjalf, the high seat of Odin, shared only with Frigg. The Gods and goddesses have dwellings in Asgard and it is in Asgard that the deities gather and hold council. The overall picture of Asgard is somewhat limited, as few details are transmitted down to us. We do know that there are mountains, rivers and other mundane geographic features and that there is weather which any resident of Midgard could comprehend.
