Exeter

Description
Exeter is a large city in the Golden Continent that serves as capital of the Confederation. Exeter is port city that is sustained largely by trade between the islands of the Confederation and the inland regions of the Golden Kingdom beyond. Exeter has a very diverse and largely tolerant population.

Exeter is home to a large port, an adjacent market, the capital building of the Confederation, and the ruins of a large fort outside the city.

Exeter is currently controlled by the Resistance, which is working to restore democracy in the Confederation.

History
Exeter was founded during the period following the War of the Ember when human settlements spread throughout the continent. Exeter first gained notoriety as the site of the Summit of Exeter in 613 B.A., which led to the founding of the Confederation of Free Peoples. As the capital of the Confederation, Exeter was frequently the site of battles in the First, Second, Third, and Fourth Banking Wars. Particulatly notable battles include when the Confederation's parliament was overthrown in 3 B.A. and when the Resistance ambushed the banker's garrison and destroyed the city's fort a year later.
