Durauch is one of the largest and most of the City-States that rule in Kandaria. It exerts it's influence over the other many towns and villages in the middle portion of the island. The city straddles the Anduan River as it flows into Durauch Bay. The bay is incredibly shallow inside the Point most of it having a depth less than 10 feet. Because of this the sea going ships have to anchor beyond the Point and flat bottomed barges work between the rivver's mouth where most of the city lies and the anchored ships. The effect of the tides is also greatly reduced, so much so that a whole district of the city (the Channels) is built on piles driven into the muddy floor of the bay. Occasionally a large storm will cause the waters of the bay to surge and flood the Channels, but the residents are used to cleaning up after and take it in stride.
Most of the city's wealth is build on trade. Wool and grain, as well as gems from the Dwarves in the Spine are traded for iron and luxury goods from the continent. Durauch also flows goods traded with the half-elf city-state to the north onto ships that travel to the southern portion of the island and to the continent.
North Shore:
This is a middle class neighborhood. If is mostly a residential district, but there are markets shops and smaller businesses.
South Shore: this is an upper class residential district.
The Channels:
This is Durauch's slum and red light district. It sits on the water of the bay on piles as well and on marshy land and sand bars. Many narrow canels criss-cross the area, passing beneath and around the wooden walkways that connect homes and businesses.
The Heights:
This is Durauch's governmental and religious center. It has government offices and tempest.
Guildseat:
This is the heart of the Durach economy. It is the market district of the city, full of open markets, specialty shops, theaters and guild headquarters of most merchant and artisan guilds.
The Docks:
This is where the barges that work as go betweens the city and anchored ships in the deep bay beyong the point are kept. It is closely monitored by the city guard and is well organized. There are inns and bars for sailors, and for facilitating business, but the prices are higher than most sailors are willing to pay.
The Foundry:
This district is the military district of the city.
