Makari

Did you try that pie yet? And this one, with pumpkin! And the cherry one! And here, with cream and strawberries!

Makari is the largest settlement in Farenia, with over 46,000 registered residents and many more unregistered people from the fae realm. Makari is also the most prosperous. The city is a member of the Farenian Empire, but it considers itself an autonomous entity, and it avoids getting involved in politics outside of the city limits whenever possible.

Demographics

Apart from mostly Kendric, the area is populated by a variety of faefolk, however they are not legally counted as residents because they do not form part of the Allegro itself. There are also a few gnomes and dwarfs among the population.

Government

As the sole city of the Kendric, who name themselves the Allegro, Makari is ruled by the High Okarina, the elected leader of the Allegro. The High Okarina is supported by a group of advisors, called the Ensemble.

Infrastructure

Due to the hundreds of little dome-shaped residences that are all surrounded by trees, fields, vegetable gardens, hedges and shrubberies, Makari takes up a significant amount of land. Everyone is cultivating their own fruits and vegetables or running a little chicken or duck farm, which creates a large open area between every tiny house and the next.
Narrow waterways crisscross the whole city, and you can witness an unending number of tiny boats transporting goods to and from various locations throughout the day. The canals are crossed by a large number of little wooden arch bridges that are only high enough to allow you to glide through them in a boat if you dip your head beneath them. Because the canals are so little and the vegetation between them is so thick, you would not be able to see them from a distance if it were not for the tiny bridges that protrude from the ground here and there.
