Free Haven is often referred to as “The Cradle of the Empire.”  While an elected mayor rules the city-state itself, the chosen representatives from all of the nations of the Empire live and meet here to handle the day-to-day business of the Empire.  The Empire relies on steady communication between Free Haven and all of the nations, so the city is very well-protected.  A large part of the city guard is made up of troops from the standing armies of the nations that are rotated to the city for a tour of duty.

Free Haven is located on the border of North and South Ribonia, where the two would meet on the shores of the Inland Sea.  The city’s location was no accident, since the solidifying of the Empire put an end to the bloody revolutionary war that plagued the two nations.  Free Haven was built as a testament to the Empire as well as a sort of capital city.  Due to its location on the Inland Sea, materials and foodstuffs are fairly easy to import.  Ships are constantly coming and going during all seasons.  This is mostly due to the fact that Free Haven is almost completely reliant on its imports for survival.  For this reason above all others, the Empire takes threats to overland caravans and shipping lanes very seriously.
