Veldoria

Veldoria stands as a beacon of industry amidst the vast sea of golden grass. Its white stone walls and towering windmills dominate the horizon. Streets are paved with durable granite to withstand the constant flow of heavy merchant wagons. The air smells of freshly baked bread and expensive spices. Wealth is not just stored here; it is actively traded and reinvested into the city's expanding infrastructure.

History

Over centuries, strategic alliances and the discovery of fertile loam transformed it into a regional breadbasket. Its leaders focused on banking and logistics, turning a simple agricultural hub into the world's premier trade node. Today, it serves as the financial heartbeat of the plains, surviving wars through the power of its purse strings.
