The Hartheran Union, commonly named Harthera, is an imperialist maritime nation state dominating the northeast of Anásthias. It is one of the two great powers of the modern epoch, arguably the most technologically and militarily powerful nation in the world, only matched by the vast size and wealth of its neighbour, viridviridOrorrMEOrorrOrorrOrorrOrorr's bureaucratic administration, responsible for licensing, permits, and the law. It sits atop the highest hill in the west city, and in ancient times was the chief fort in the old walls defending the port city. The eastern front has an impressive facade, providing an show of Hartheran power that seems to hover over Dockside.
Today most citizens coming to the palace for writs, permits or crimes use the western entrance in Tabray. The Metros is also the principle military and civic complex of the western city, as the local bureaucracy for all three western districts are located here. It issues all documents and passes for the West Quarter, as well as housing the local records offices and the lower law courts.
