History
In 1714, Folkon embarked on an expansionist campaign, establishing an empire that encompassed neighboring city-states, including modern-day Tumland, parts of Sconia to the northwest, sections of Pavulturilor to the east, and segments of the Fieri Islands located to the east of Tumland. The empire's collapse due to internal strife led Folkon to integrate into the broader Tumland. Occasional unrest persists as certain factions advocate for independence.

Folkon is situated in the heart of Folkonia, characterized by its flat terrain and proximity to the river. While lacking in distinct geographic features such as mountains or natural wonders, Folkon's strategic location along trade routes has historically contributed to its economic significance.

These manufacturing facilities play a vital role in supplying goods both domestically and internationally.
