That's all not that difficult:
Indeed, the C&C's "The Great Kingdom" encompassed the entire Greyhawk map - because the group was of DMs was coordinating their games with one another.
All the conflicts, and the like, that we see in later Greyhawk publications,
came through the overall course of the different campaigns.
Like, the Greyhawk war, and the end of the Naelax/Ivid/Ovar kingdom was the very subject of Mr Kuntz' Kalibruhn campaign,
as was the civil war with the provinces (a trope we later see repeated in Blackmoor).
Also, take note that the king of the Great Kingdom is really "Dave"... "Ivid",
because he was the one who started the first metaplots.
That's really about everything there is.
I for my part prefer to use "The Great Kingdom" as well, but simply because "Thonia" sounds pretty retarded in German.
Also, I tend to use "Thonia" more as a term for a specific era, as seen in the LFC.
