'''Corran''' is the capital city of the [[Southern Province]] in the [[Atarlie Empire]], a small city but by far the largest in the domain. The city is known by the epithet ''Crux of the Roadways'', as it sits at a junction between five roadways leading throughout the province and to the north via [[Heroka]]. The citizens of the [[Hearthlands]] know the city as ''Elfholme'' as it is the largest major settlement of the Atarlie Empire anywhere near the protectorate, and one of the previously-mentioned roads leads to [[Hall Hill]].

The city is not fortified in a [[Bastonian Sense]] but exists at a high point among swampland, meaning it is only practically accessible along one of its roads. The elves maintain good relationships with local spirits and a chapter of the [[Imperial Legion]] in the city to defend it.

== Geography ==
Corran's position makes it hard to assail, but its roads make it approachable, and it is the only settlement bigger than a small town in all of the Southern Province. These five roads (known for the key features along their lengths) lead to [[Heroka]], [[Hall Hill]], [[Imarraka]], [[Navarre's Crossing]] and the mountain road, which leads into passes over the [[Atlas Mountains]], villages throughout the west of the province, and ultimately to [[Three Peak Dale]].

== Economy ==
Corran is wealthy by the standards of its province but relatively poor compared to major cities like [[Tripolis]] or [[Heroka]]. The city does command the bulk of all trade with both the [[Hearthlands]] and the minor towns within the Southern Province, which produce the overwhelming majority of grains, fruits, nuts, and vegetables consumed throughout the empire.

== Politics ==
Before the Southern Campaign, Corran was relatively politically unimportant. However, since the Southern Campaign and the adoption of the [[Hearthlands]] as a protectorate, the city has gained new cachet. The [[Prefect of the South]] is afforded remarkable latitude in managing the affairs of his province by comparison to the other five prefects, and the city is home to a permanent mission of an Imperial Legate with responsibility to represent both the Emperor and the Senate to the halflings and gnomes in [[Hall Hill]]
