Additions:

Perhaps the farthest still-controlled branch of the Ardasi empire, Plateia is a bastion of economic prosperity. Originally colonized as an outpost of [[Aridoc The Holy Empire Aridoc]] controlling a southern strip of the [[Cathilcarn Cathilcarn mountains]], the area’s natural barriers nurtured an unruly sanctuary for political and religious extremists. Historians cite increased taxation and increasing religious influence as the final events to spur the city’s independence; what followed was a monthlong stand-off between the Ardasi and Ardocian armies that did little to ease international relations. This unsteady stalemate formalized the Cathilicarn range as a northeastern border for the Holy Empire Aridoc and discouraged latter attempts to further colonize the northern continent.

Additions:

Due to its lenient sovereignty and geography straddling nations of two dynamically-contrasting philosophies, the city has adopted a reputation as refuge for less-acceptable beliefs. Indeed it is not rare, or even uncommon, for citizens to profess malevolent and radical religions without fear of prosecution; vile powers too small or too abnormal to find a foothold in other cities have found tolerant sanctuary in the region. This only bolsters the city’s prevalent market for flesh and forced labor, slaves generally taken or bought illegally from the free lands to the west and south.
