Candomia - Borderlands!

Candomia is the capitol of the candomian territory, but is by no means the only city within that territory. This will give a brief description of some of the major cities and towns within the Candomian territory.

Peregrine - Peregrine is a large city far to the north east of the territory. It acts as a major city between Candomia and Ravenspire, but exists pretty far from the actual ravenspire border. Peregrine was formed in the 2nd age after the fall of a minor forming city under the same name. The new city was built a few miles from the old sight, and has since prospered. Peregrines alignment is decidedly lawful, though they are a bit more lax with there laws. Nobility seems to work well with the commoners, though there is more of a noticeable difference between the two classes. This sometimes causes friction between the ruled and the rulers. A grand lord rules the land much as a king would, though he must still answer to the actual king of Candomia. Peregrine has an army of near equal size to Candomia, though the actual size of the city is about a quarter of Candomias population.

Caladrim - Caladrim is a city far to the south east of Candomia, and rests right on the border of the Stardown forest. Caladrim has a more gothic feel to it than traditional candomian architecture, but its not as dark as Ravenspire. Caladrims population is about half of candomias, and its considered a major city. Caladrim is ruled by a High Elf lord and a representative council of candomians. The Lord still answers to the Candomian king. Caladrim is an important city, as it is a border town to the High Elves, and it is considered one of the wealthiest trade cities. Caladrim has a standing army about half the size of Candomia, and boasts almost as many adventurers there as candomia itself does.

Arenstahl - Arenstahl is a Candomian city located far to the South and west, and is located amidst a great plain. Arenstahl is a fairly large city, though its population is only about a sixth the size of candomia. Arenstahl is a trade city, focusing on massive amounts of farmlands around its territory. Arenstahl produces about 60% of the farm goods produced in the Candomian territories. Arenstahl has typical architecture, though there is a bit of a dwarven take to the architecture as of late. Aside from Alborine, Arenstahl houses the largest population of hilldwarves, which exist in nearby towns and villages within what hills are available. Arenstahl is run by a group of six lords who take majority votes on any territorial decisions, though they must still abide by the greater laws set down by the King of Candomia. Arenstahl has some of the fastest horses on the continent, and a special breed of riding and light war horses are available only within Arenstahl. Arenstahl has a small army, only about a tenth the size of Candomias, it utilizes a standing militia to police the vast farmlands.

Villages -
Villages and towns are dotted all across the territories, and most of them incorporate farmland, rivers, or lakes, though there are a decent amount of mining towns and villages as well. Almost all Candomian territories are named after birds, or incorporate aerial creatures. Candomian villages and towns rarely have standing armies, and usually utilize small militia to protect there borders.
