Sycia Settlement in Capriana | World Anvil

Sycia

Cape of Campari

The coastal city of Sycia is built into and upon the steep shoreline of Campari's southwest coast. Nicknamed the "Golden Coast," the Sycian sea's slow erosion of the rocky shore caused the creation of a diverse coastline of cliffs, sloping mountains, an archipelago, and a natural inland waterway.

Demographics

As a result of it's status as a port city, Sycia is inhabited by a large variety of demographics. It is considered a multi-ethnic trade city and cultural hub.

Defences

Sycia has a large citadel northwest of the Sycia canal.

Infrastructure

A natural waterway created from through the continent of Campari was later expanded by Sycia to create the Sycia Canal.
