Pendosis

A major city in the Chorenese which was the capital of the Sultanate of Chorene, and is now the capital of the Sultanate of Arana. It lies in the heart of Chorene, situated on the Limon River, and is a centre for regional trade and agriculture. 
The city is famous for its baths, parks, and gardens, and for the many bridges stretching across the Limon river, although more and more of these bridges are being wilfully neglected and are falling into disrepair due to the price of upkeep every year in spring, when the river floods and cause many of the bridges to collapse.
== Culture ==
One of the defining features of Pendosis is its agriculture-based life, but it is also famous for its spicy, sour, and fatty dishes made of meat and bulgurs. People enjoy red peppers and strong spices and their most famous dish is the kebab.
== Economy ==
Pendosis is a major centre for grain production in Chorene, and handles most of the trade from the mountainous regions to the coast. Local merchants have begun to buy neglected bridges form the government to impose their own heavy tolls under the pretence of upkeep for the bridge network. However, this is also gradually cutting a divide between the two parts of the city as many can no longer afford to cross the river, and it can take an entire day to cross one of the few bridges still under the sultana's control due to the sheer mass of people needing to cross the river every day.
