Council of Brundelium
The Council of Brundelium is the governing body of the imperial city of Brundelium. It is made up of the Dux of Brundelium, the Aedilis Urbana, and the Legatus Legionis of Legio V. Together, they meet weekly in council to handle matters for the city.
Military
The city of Brundelium is defended by a nearby garrison which houses Legio V.
Agriculture & Industry
Brundelium's agriculture largely comes from large tracts of land on the eastern side of the Imuro River. A few small, privately owned farms exist on the western side, but they are prone to predation by monsters living in the Eturangian Uplands nearby, as Legio V rarely crosses the river.
Trade & Transport
Trade with Estinople is largely via river barge, though land caravans exist, as well. For this reason the highway is well patrolled, and there are few bandits. The Brundelium-Estinos route mostly consists of gemstones, iron and copper ores, and cut stone going south. A small amount of silk and musical instruments also flow through Brundelium from the elves on the way to Estinople. Finished goods, agricultural supplies, and livestock move northward to Brundelium from Estinople.
Trade with Portus Praedistum follows the river to near its headwaters via barge, then follows a minor track (not a paved imperial road) the rest of the way. Goods flowing out of Brundelium include cut stone and copper ore, as well as tall, straight timbers from the Forest of the Imperium, which make excellent ship's masts. Very little trade passes through Brundelium from Estinos.
A small amount of trade exists with wood elves from the forest to the east. They bring carefully cultivated timbers, which get shipped to Portus Praedistum, as noted above. They also bring a small amount of silk, gathered from spiders in the forest, and handmade wooden musical instruments.
