Dominion- Port Arthur
City History, Culture, Trade and Description
The city of Port Arthur was once a bustling port city, but was surpassed by Grand Marquette nearly a century ago. As a result the city has steadily declined in importance, and though it still sees a fair amount of trade and travel heading to Ravencrest, the city has long since lost the hustle and bustle of a large trading hub, and its main export now is from the large fishing Industry that has grown.
