Description

The Kingdom of Golden Virginia is a well populated city state between Morica and the Golden gulf. The city itself is mainly made up of three parts : the Western Castle, the Eastern Castle and the new Wessex House (replacing the former Wessex Castle build) The design of the House is based on the Western Castle, details have been kept the same or similar all be-it an extra second floor on the House. The Gatehouse and surrounding wall is identical to that of the Eastern Castle.

History

Culture

Growing by migration, Golden Virginia is becoming a liberal and open society. Different cultures from poor to rich people and different religions are accepted and united under the banner of the royal house. Regulary festivals and tournaments and the general poverty fullfill the system of bread and circusses in combination with a big loyality and proudness to the royals.

The people are friendly and open-minded to visitors and welcome most travellers and traders. Only the orcs are seen as real menace while political intrigues from the morican Inquisition or demon whorshipping cults are not detected caused by a naive world view. Most people don't know much about other races or the magical world outside the naughboured territory. Good relationships exist to Morica, Ianus, Castallani and partly to the north while the Morican Inquisition see the liberal Virginian society as lost non-believers and demon cults see the kingdom as easy victim. Surely, dangerous individuals are living in Golden Virginia undercover. So, the Utopia, which survived for many years could face evil conspiracies.


Economy

Main rason for the big poverty of the kingdom were the treasures brought by refugees from Morica while the orc wars. Most people invested their belongings in financial products used for building up the giant settlement. Saved from the battles with the orcs, Golden Virginia grew up quickly and became an important trade and economy center.

The Virginian fleet build up a trade network with Ianus, Castallani, Morica and other settlements. So, exotic goods can be bought to sell into the inland of Morica and other way round. The kingdom itself produces different artistic goods, jewelry, parfumes and other luxury while food, horses and minerals have to be imported in big masses. Rich royals from connected empires save their treasures in the bank of Golden Virgninia, which reinvest the money in the trade network. Also, salt mines at the Golden gulf are used to gain salt. Other income is created by academies which train soldiers, philosophes, artists and sorcerors from other countries.
