Thiladan

Current Administer: Duke Sturlungar and the House of Dalir
To the far north and east of Paledia, Thiladan is the ancestral city of the Theridan Empire. Formerly a small town, ruled over by Lord Therid, its power and influence grew as Therid's conquests did likewise. With wealth and tribute pouring in from across Paledia, Thiladan soon grew into a mighty city.
Thiladan is also the spiritual centre of the Empire, home to many shrines and holy places, as often in praise of the First Emperor and the Imperial Family as religious.
The local economy relies primarily on trade and wealth that flows into the city, mainly based on pilgrim traffic, though there are some landowners and famers who graze their vast flocks on the empty plains in abundance in the region. There is very little mineral wealth or agriculturally suitable land in the region.
The city is currently adminsitrated by Duke Sturlungar of House Dalir who controls the Dukedom of Thiladen, which consists of the city of Thiladen and some surronding land. House Dalir came into possession of Thiladen as a reward for military service during the Wars of Conquest . House Dalir has sponosred many improvements to the city's infrastructure, and have expanded the city's places of worship sevenfold.
Nearby is the town of Iben, home to a sizeable nonhuman community who congrated there after House Dalir implemented a policy of nonhuman intolerance.
