  Nestled within the verdant lands of Ansal, the northern coast of Bruntangred holds a unique strategic position. Overseeing the maritime trade flow from neighboring lands of Loy, Otoron, and Tralgon, Bruntangred is a bastion of democratic values under the rule of the Gim family, who have strongly voiced their concerns regarding Loy's inclusion in the Ring of Rhodil, of which Ansal is also a member, on account of the insane rule by its rulers, the Kscheing. While the geographical buffer provided by Oralt tempers the outspoken opposition, the undercurrent of defiance remains strong.   Towns like Mesdronon, Freupoweals, and Parco, dotting the northern coast, are suffused with Tyrilan influences. On the other hand, the southern city of Thmin and nearby towns like Aractrud, Huncinciga, and Trungpalm bear the cosmopolitan ambiance introduced by Qildabic merchants and Pendaharut communities.   At the heart of Bruntangred is Bolesand, the capital city that wears its democratic ideals on its sleeve. The city planning with its wide boulevards symbolizes the freedom of thought and movement while public squares and parks named after heroes of democracy bear testament to the triumph of the people. Murals depicting scenes of the people's uprising against the old conquerors, known as the Onshorim, add to the narrative of the city, painting a vivid picture of the ruthless oligarchy overthrown by reformists within the Gim family.   Just a short walk away from Bolesand, Chaeriswy March stands as a site of national significance, where people honor the memory of soldiers who fell during the fight against Onshorim tyranny. During modern times, vehement nationwide opposition to the Uvan Empire resonates with the Onshorim narrative, and thus, established Ansalite identity. Ansal's people remain resolute against the Empire's expansion, but have been criticized for relying too heavily on Oralt providing a physical buffer as a means of keeping the Empire's influence at bay.   Two notable Ansalites embody these democratic values. Eir Gim, a descendant of the reformists within the Gim family, is a celebrated historian and author. Her writings on Ansal's fight for democracy against the Onshorim have become iconic texts. On the other hand, Ferin Merlowe, an acclaimed architect, is responsible for many public spaces in Bolesand. His work, characterized by open spaces and the symbolism of freedom, is viewed as a testament to Ansal's democratic values.
