Riverholm

Riverholm is the current capital, lying just north of the Matakonis mountains on the coast of the Ash Sea. The second-smallest city in Abington, it's size and grandeur is dwarfed by addition of once-Indepdendent, once-Capital Suville, jewel of the south. Nevertheless, it is the most important city of the realm, and is far more developed than as-yet largely untamed Suville.

Economy

The biggest industry is the manufacture of goods; this employs the majority of the burghers and townsfolk and earns the city the majority of its wealth.

Trade with other regions, in comparison, comes close in terms of employment but produces less than half the wealth.

A small but important sector consists of farming and fishing, while almost five thousand are employed directly by the local Duke and by the Kingdom of Abington itself.

Home of the Riverholm Sabre style of fencing: "A flamboyant trick-moves style, very advanced, using scimitars, sabers or other curved single-edged swords, employing graceful cuts, dodges, slashes." As well, many bureacrats, soldiers and traders alike come to the Academy to train and educate themselves, tutored by many of the brightest and most learned minds in all Atamara.
