A few city descriptions
City Descriptions Tanaq Tanaq is the capital and the largest city in the empire; it is home to more than 10 clans and is where the Emperor and his extended family reside. It is home to several hundred thousand people and has the largest concentrations of Imperial Warriors in the empire. Before the Qatama took power it was known as Jarba and was ruled by the Ajra tribe. When the Qatama conquered it they left most of the structures intact due to not wanting to have to rebuild before beginning their rule over their new empire. Tanaq is controlled by the Muhaj clan which is the Emperors clan, but a cousin of the Emperor does the actual governing of the city due to the Emperor having other obvious obligations. Mujara Mujara is the largest port on the Qatama coastline. It is a center for commerce and a haven for countless people. Many of the citizens of Mujara make their living from fishing and trade, but there is also a large amount of smuggling of Qatama banned items. The schools in Mujara are decent and the children learn well. The religious community in Mujara is not quite as large as it is in other big cities within the empire and much of this is due to the unsavory characters that frequent the streets. Mujara is run by the Mujar clan and has been off and on since the city first sprang up. The Mujar clan is powerful in regards to shipping, fishing, and trade but has a very small militia in comparison to other clans the same size. When it comes to defense of Mujara shores they rely heavily on other clans that they hold trade agreements with. Mujara is considered a decent place to live and work but has political importance only because of the trade in the region. Qutam Qutam is the oldest city in the empire and is home to the oldest known ruins ever discovered. The city first belonged to the Guang tribe and was known as Grotlun. After the Ajra tribe took power the city became their capital for a while and was known as Bakra, under the Ajra the city flourished and became the cultural center of the known world. After the founding of Jarba, by the Ajra, Qutam was simply referred to as the second city, and many saw it has a place to only visit. When the Qatama rose to power they decided to rename the city out of respect to the Guang. Qutam has never reached the heights that it did under Guang rule, but it has become a large cultural center once more with the Qatama in charge. Qutam boasts the second largest population in the empire, as well as the largest temple known as al Kagaha, it also has three universities while most cities only have one, there are two libraries and several art houses. Unfortunately though, Qutam is now after many years of drought in the desert and many have begun to leave. Qutam is run by the Amuq clan which is the 4th largest clan in the empire and one of the lifelong seats on the Imperial Council, and the Council of Lords. =Around the Empire= ==Tanaq== '''Tanaq''' is the capital and the largest city in the empire; it is home to more than 10 clans and is where the Emperor and his extended family reside.
