An Gort (also known as Gort) is a forest town in the southern region of Cúige Chonnacht county in Ireland

Location[]

An Gort is a forest town strategically located at the only entrance into Cúige Chonnacht county. This has earned An Gort the unofficial title of "Gateway to Chonnacht

Because of its proximity to An Mumhain, An Gort enjoys heavy traffic and serves as a natural stop along the Cúige Chonnacht/An Mumhain trade corridor.

An Gort hosts travelers from all across Ireland, who come to take advantage of the trading, nightlife, and enjoy Gortian's fabled hospitality.

Nearby towns[]

The nearest towns are Baile Locha Riach to the northeast and Imleach (Independent town) to the south.[1]

Resources[]

An Gort is a forest town and trading hub that provides many resources (especially wood) to Cúige Chonnacht and nearby An Mumhain. One of the major benefits of living in An Gort is having the luxury of a fully-stocked market at one's disposal.

Prices may sometimes be high, but Gortians seldom want for much. In the absence of profiteering laws and price caps, An Gort enjoys a pure free market, for better or for worse.

Many wealthy, influential, and longtime players live in An Gort and their presence adds to the town dynamics. In addition, An Gort coordinates its commercial and governing activities closely with the County of Chonnacht, to mutual benefit.

In addition to this, An Gort was the first town in the English speaking world to complete construction on a level 3 port.

Military[]

As the gateway into Cúige Chonnacht, An Gort maintains a strong military presence, with several armies and many armed retinues and groups on standby at any given moment.

Travelers who are in armed retinues or who have had prior military service in unsanctioned armies are asked to please clear travel arrangements in advance with the Mayor before traveling to or through An Gort, to avoid complications with An Gort armies.

When An Gort was openly threatened by Anto_Capone of the NNGO, Countess Fae sent the DVAS Army from Cúige Chonnacht to give support to An Mumhain troops in Inis in July, 1457.[2]
