Westen Coast
A small, relatively poor province in between Stormhaven and the Easten Coast provinces. It controls only a few towns and villages, but has remained a province thanks to its difficulty to manage requiring a focused individual. The task has been given to a minor noble family, the Shadwer House, which have been the area's stewards for generations.
Assets
The only real asset of the province is Starkshore, a small fishing town that has a lagoon deep enough to support trade. Since it becomes much more expensive to ship further east, most ships drop their goods off there. Most of the money is funneled through the trading companies themselves though, so only the taxes on the transactions and the docking fees are taken for the province's use.
Military
The Hazran military patrols both the land and sea around the province, allowing for little banditry. Around the borders between Westen Coast and Easten Coast the routes are more dangerous, thanks to the area being much more distant from any major port or military base.
Infrastructure
Westen Coast has very little need of major infrastructure. However Tern Shadwer, the current governor, has been building roads along the coastline to allow for safer and easier overland travel. The roads connect many of the neighboring villages together and have brought in a degree of local trade between them. This has strengthened the unity of the province considerably.
