Really ? This brings up a question I wanted to ask since quite a while. How
come that all the regions in the Southlands have virtually no population ?
There is a fair assortment of guilds and markets (maybe even a denser one than
in the Old Lands), but there are single regions in the Old Lands which have
populations several times larger than the total population of all twelve
regions of the Southlands. Even the "city" of Chardia, with its guilds and
markets and ports and castles, which probably make it the most valueable region
in the entire Southlands has a total population of _100_ ! At the same time
boring unimportant places in the middle of nowhere like Antresk have
populations of almost 10000.

Is this a bug or a feature ?
