The East

The craft and trade center of Stara Ladoga has linked the Baltic to eastern Europe for centuries. It is a very ethnically mixed area. Gorodisce is the site of the eastern Scandinavian rulers, including Oleg and Olga. Kiev has been around for centuries, and is antoher ethnically mixed city. A few Scandinavian elites live there. It is very important as the connection to Constantinople and the Byzantian empire. Constantinople is the ideal city, the center of the world and full of luxuries. Trade routes are all limited to the river systems and waterways all over the East.
