The Commonwealth:
While the Rakutan Forest takes up a fair amount of Allondell, the general landscape and populace is most consistently found in the Commonwealth. This area dominates a large portion of the continent, touching with the coasts and boundaries to other areas. The Commonwealth is comprised of mostly farmland and hills, stretching for as far as the eye can see, and the variety of farmed goods range anywhere from wheat to bovines or fruits to tobacco. Providing significant economic prosperity for the Stamarian Empire as a whole, the Commonwealth is considered to be a peaceful yet important part of the Empire.
Properties in the Commonwealth are often large and frequently not completely settled. Many areas are centralized around smaller farms, growing crops or breeding livestock within the proximity and relative safety of a community. The majority of these towns are relatively small, containing only a handful of people who’ve been living near one another for generation after generation in the relatively pleasant area of the Commonwealth. The taxes here are light as these farmers are a valuable asset to the Empire that Aurinar Stamarin does not wish to lose even the faith of.
The Commonwealth towns grow larger as they approach cities, the average town being a day or two’s travel from the next one, but the travel is considered to be a generally pleasant one. Naturally, with farms or towns that are close to rivers or even the oceans, more prosperity can be found than other areas, but it is generally considered by the Empire officials and even the citizens of the area to be a particularly well off and pleasant society for anyone living there or even traveling through, with little more than the average pack of wolves or angry bears to be worry the peaceful community with defense or violent struggle.
