Day 4 | Capital Of The Mesvris Empire

For Day 4, I have included the cities that are within close circumference to the capital of the Mesvris Empire–Dedepskenu City. The name Mesvris derives from the phrase omyespev ris meaning \”life-finder.\” It was the name of the founder who took control of what would become Dedepskenu City by taking over the kingship via trickery.

Reasons For Their Locations

As mentioned before by the ecologist Eugene Odum, the estuary is one of the most important locations in human history, because civilizations tend to thrive there. Though, it doesn\’t always mean that a city can always be located there as a rule. Nonetheless, that is the decision behind Dedepskenu\’s location, since it is directly facing the rest of the Rkespiwa world.

The cities on this map are within the warmest parts of the world. They are either situated on the coasts or on islands. These cities were given their names by Mesvris colonials due to either their economic or geographical importance.
