The Free Banks

The Free Banks; the richer, more developed younger brother of Borro. Their success is in the land; the cities line up against the deltas of a great river, “Caeros”, which lead from the Borro mountains into the sea. This location gives the Free Banks a geographical advantage; the river’s fingers, so to speak, act as a natural barrier against invading armies, and the rich soil makes for great agricultural products. That, and its central location on the eastern shore, makes it the wealthiest and most developed region in all of Marathon. In fact, its overall population just barely exceeds that of Mistral, which geographically is three times the Banks’ collective size.
