Disseri

The palace-city of was the cosmopolitan capital of the Empire of Dar'Asmad.
== History and Culture ==
Before the rude awakening of Dar'Asmad to the existence of distant foreign powers with terrifying ships, the Asmadis could view Disseri as the heart of the universe without irony or dissonance -- a place where the power of the Emperor drew any and all notables from the known corners of creation. Disseri is a splendid and rich city of ten million, filled with the cultural exports of its far-flung dominions, which Asmadis consume as their just reward for keeping the cosmos at peace.
In the early days of contact between Dar'Asmad and the great powers of Imperial Space, Disseri was abuzz not with the threat of foreign empires but with the "marvelous sorceries" that filtered from the frontier: commentators assumed that the metal boxes on handles that could spit fire were the result of a lifetime's work by a keen magician and could be added without apprehension to the store of wonders that were the Emperor's due.
