Marketplace and Trade. Scotchwood is a de facto satellite state of Magicorp, who owns the rights to their mines. Their main exports are high-quality furniture and fixtures, jewelry, rare metals, and other items from the gemstones found in their mines.

Population Size. Huge: Scotchwood’s mines attract a considerable workforce, with loads of money tied up in the profits of those mines. The city’s registered population is 1,000,000.

Population Density. Extremely dense: Because most of Scotchwood’s area is occupied by mines and dense vegetation, the living arrangements of their citizens accommodate this by relying mainly on apartment-style, company-owned housing projects.

Demonym. ‘Scots’
