Iccim

Iccim is a cultural hub. It is the playground of the nobility, especially those who are of the noble or aristocratic classes, but not titled in their own right.

Government

Iccim is the seat of Fupet, so it is ruled directly by the Awatcovum. At the present time, that is Terua Agpumoida Puusor. She has members of her court appointed to overseeing the various functions of the urban bureaucracy.

Defences

In addition to the Fortress of Fupet, the city is protected by a formidible wall featuring three stout gates and twenty-two towers.

Industry & Trade

Iccim deals in peat and rice. It imports luxury items from Ritilium and Khumrong.

Infrastructure

Streets and Roads

About two-thirds of the streets in Iccim are paved. They are mostly wide and well-maintained. A stone bridge spans the Fupet River south of town, giving access to Papibol and the captial Ritilium beyond. The remainder of the streets and roads in and around Iccim are dirt. Many of these are very narrow, barely a wagon's width wide.

Sanitation

Iccim is kept reasonably clean by the otherwise indigent population of the city. Each day, the town watch gathers around one hundred of the poorest souls in town and has them work for the day removing refuse, washing the streets, and so on. In truth, few resist being chosen, for those selected are paid a whopping 6 crowns for their days' work.

Districts

The center of town features an artificial hill, rather like a motte. The Fortress of Fupet sits at its summit, overlooking the town and the surrounding countryside. Beyond this peculiar feature, the rest of the town is not really divided into districts.
