The town proper is comprised of 19 districts, fenced in by walls, towers, bastions, and gatehouses. Five more districts, "The Outs", comprise its suburban areas, most of which are east, across the Yggsburgh Canal. Togather these 24 districts make up the ordered and prosperous Free Town of Yggsburgh. |
