I don't know of the borderlands, or much about war hammer, but the river kingdoms might be along the lines of what you are looking for.
There is an Adventure Path called Kingmaker that takes place here and involves runni g kingdoms and fighting between nations and such. I don't know if that's what you are looking for.

The River Kingdoms are a good match.
If you'd like something more Viking-esque, then adventurers in the Lands of the Linnorm Kings working their way towards killing a Linnorm to become a King is another way to go. Similarly, for a pirate and sea flavour, you can do the same with the Shackles - becoming powerful pirates, establishing a base of operations, rising to the rank of Free Captain, Pirate Lord, and so on.

thanks for the tips on kingmaker
ps the border princes are basically a frountier ruled by hundreds tiny kingdoms most city/town states mostly ruled by petty dictators/ thugs with delusions of grandure.
This describes the River Kingdoms (where Kingmaker takes place) pretty well, really.
