While Fontico is the capital of The Kingdom of Fonticia and seat of its government, it is only a medium-sized city by Fontician standards, and number eleven in size within the kingdom.
The city is located at the mouth of the river Tokley, and is less than 50 km from the northern border to Schap. Long ago, the border ran well over a hundred kilometres distant from the capital, and the city of Utwan and its surrounding province of Ezland were under Fontician control. These days, however, Fonticia finds its seat of government just two days of hard march away from a border that is not always friendly. As a consequence, the city is heavily fortified, with more fortifications along the river, at the bridge over the Tokley river and all along the road leading northwards.
Fontico is also a port city and a vital trade port between the north and south. Government and trade, officials and merchants, are said to be the backbone and blood of the city.
