Fiord Harbour is the second largest port in Dyelli Beybi, situated on the East Benjian Island of Murphy Island. The harbour itself is North facing, sheltering ships within from the open Sea to the South. The harbour itself is long and Fiord-like. However, the harbour is not a Fiord, being located in a tropical climate zone. The city is spread around the harbour in a 'U' shape, with wealthier housing on the hilltops, and poorer areas being located close to the dock facilities at the waterfront. As the largest trading Port in the West of the country, Fiord Harbour sees a lot of Foreign and Local vessels moving through it.Probably for this reason, in recent years following assimilation into Dyelli Beybi during the East Benjian Adventure, it has attracted a large number of unskilled Dyellian labourers.


The Recent Uprising

In recent times a major Tzarist uprising managed to claim control of the central city for a period of two weeks, after which, despite aid from Neo Tyr, it was crushed by the joint efforts of the Dyelli Beybian Military Leaders, Lunchtime O'Booze and Christopher France, along with substancial aid for the Government from the Federation, particularly, the States of Vrak and Alcona and Hubris. This led directly to the Neo Tyr War. During the fighting Tzar George VII, last claimant to the Dyelli Beybian throne, was killed.
