Geography

The city is mainly built of red mud brick and tiles, its streets drifting with red dust, hence it being called the Red City. In richer neighbourhoods, watermen sprinkle water onto the streets to keep down the omnipresent dust. In ancient times it was laid out as a grid, similar to ancient Issid style. Today its architecture is very different, its houses being long and narrow, usually of only one or two storeys. The city is still surrounded by its red brick walls, but their soft construction and low rise is mainly to control the flow of goods, people and animals rather than practical defensive purposes.

The local stone and clay soil is rich with iron, so the city has long been a source of iron ore. Historically it was source of the rare red jade prized by many cultures of the River Wiyel, but the nearby jade pits were mined out long ago. Today the chief industries are pig iron and tiles, baked from the red river clay. Chiefly the city prospers on trade, both by river and overland via the caravan road to Sineratot, 170 km to the southeast.

History

Taslamac was historically an independent kingdom, devoted to its red crocodon god. The city had a long-standing rivalry with the Kingdom of Seqal, fighting many battles and trade wars. It remained independent well into the time of the Empire of Dor-en-Sann, entering the empire through negotiation.

During the early organisation of the new nation of Ororr, Taslamac was set to become part of Tulf Jhaena province, a part of Deltirot, which citizens considered unacceptable. The tile-makers of the city offered to create a dazzling array of tiles in the construction of the Prophet's shrine of Foratuna, and in thanks, the Mesekk, the chief priesthood of Foratuna, requested that Taslamac be incorporated into the Mangasor region.
