Mandural

Mandural used to be the capital city of Asharia until it was moved to Elmazar in AE 1413. It connects the whole eastern part of Asharia to the rest of the world, and is still considered the capital city of southern Asharia in many ways. Mandural is also an ancient city - there are proof of habitation of this spot for at least four millennia.

Government

Not technically the capital city of Asharia, this city is practically the capital city of Southern Asharia. Most things that doesn't affect the northern part of the country is governed here.

Defences

Mandural is surrounded by a city wall, making the city well defended. The whole city is inside these walls, only leaving some farms outside the walls. An alarm system is a part of this, with four towers around the city with bells. If the city is under attack, or the farmlands outside the walls are in danger, the bells will be sounded, warning everyone outside the walls to get inside them. And, since using the towers for only one thing would be stupid if it can be used for more things, there are holes and platforms where crossbowmen and spellslingers can fire from.

Infrastructure

The Clockwork Gondola brings people quickly and comfortably from Mandural to Elmazar several times a week.

Geography

Mandural lies by a lake in the southeast of the vast area called The Great Plains. The terrain in the area around the city is flat and well-fitted for both crops and livestock. Some scattered forests lie nearby, and the mountains of The Peaks of Heaven is just over the lake.

Natural Resources

The area around Mandural is prime farmland, and this brings grain and livestock to the city. The nearby lake is providing the city with fish. Not far away from the city there are some forests which supply wood.
