Fjord Wyatpose

The prime City on the continent to have reasonable space for a large port to accept intercontinental sea transport, and the only one to have constructed a skyship dock. They are the Hub of intercontinental Trade.

Demographics

Made of a huge hodgepodge of different races from Orphansia and beyond. Second worst of the major cities for disbursement of wealth, they have roughly 10% below the Poverty line.

Government

The Governance of the City is run ostensibly by the King, but more often than not the day to day is administered by the Steward.

Defences

Having expanded multiple times since its founding there are layers of defense. Surrounded by stout sturdy walls, topped with towers, and only allowing entry through gatehouses. The outer defense is impressive. Balistae and Catapult emplacements supplement the crenellations and murder holes.

Industry & Trade

As a capital city almost anything can be found here, at least for a price. Being the major Inter-continental Port goods from across the world find themselves here. There are pockets of many trades throughout the city and goods can, if you know what to do, be bought low and sold high.

Infrastructure

Major Infrastructure works have been completed and are activly maintained. From Cannals to bring in water, sewers to remove waste, extensive docks for Seaships, a Skyport for Skyships, roads, gutters, etc.

Districts

The Royal District which only soldiers, court officials, Nobles, and people with official business are allowed to enter.
The Wealthy district that partially surrounds it that denies entry to people who do not appear to meet certain guidelines on wealth.
The Market District that has stores and venodrs for people from the poor to the rich, though entering a higher end establishment than you appear to have coin to patronize can lead to being  asked to leave, especially if it offends other patrons.
The Poor districts where the lower class live. 
The Docks district, on the water, extensive docks and a large number of warehouses.
The Skyport shares warehouse space but is not considered part of the Docks but rather its own very small district.

History

The City has been the Seat of power since the founding of the Kingdom. Growth demands have cause the City tro se several reconstructions and fires were at one time a major worry. Thankfully now most buildings are stone or have fire suppression.

Points of interest

Full of shops, and inns for the highly transient portions of the City, there's almost everything to be had here.

Tourism

Local tourism is driven by the markets. The City doesn't draw much long distance Tourism in and of itself.

Geography

Sitting on a bay allowed ample construction of docks, shipwrights, and fisheries. The land does slope gently up from the ocean allowing most of the City to be substantially enough above water level to prevent frequent flooding.
