Northern Territory

The original name of the region was never mentioned, but it lies to the north of Capital Town.

Background
The governor of the region demanded a toll for entering and exiting the region. Even Naofumi was asked to pay, disregarding his Traveling Merchant certificate. The tax rate was very high and resulted in higher market prices on necessities like food and lodging. It was a huge burden to the commoners, leaving everyone in depression.

Summary
Itsuki and his comrades learned that the governor levied higher taxes than what the crown demanded and accepted bribes from dishonest merchants. He also hired bodyguards who would punish those that spoke against him. He lined his pockets with money while the territory and its people were rotting away. He also caused much trouble to the neighboring town and forcefully took the daughter of the nobleman of that town.

Days following Itsuki's investigation, the entire town gossiped about a group of mysterious adventures who broke into and removed the governor from office. Itsuki also managed to save the daughter of the neighboring town's noble family. It was later revealed that this was the request from the crown that had issued the quest using a certificate which bore a royal seal made with special technology and could not be duplicated. Despite this, Itsuki's reward for this achievement was stolen.

Ituski accused Naofumi of stealing his reward without any base. But, Naofumi points out that it was Itsuki's own fault of hiding his identity that let the impersonator steal his reward and had nothing to do with Naofumi. Later, Naofumi begins to suspect that the noblemen may be contributing his profits to the Church of the Three Heroes and his ousting might have enraged the High Priest against Itsuki. Naofumi also believes that the Church of the Three Heroes might have stolen Itsuki's reward, as they alone have the replica of the holy weapon. But it was later found out that Itsuki's own party under Mald stole the achievement and reported it to be stolen.

Landscape
Northern Territory is on the Main World continent surrounded by some of the most powerful kingdoms on the continent: Melromarc and the Siltvelt Kingdom etc.

Economy
Mostly seems to have shops, inns, bars, and a market. But the business suffered due to heavy taxes and the absurd activities of the thug hired by the noblemen. After Itsuki's action, its local economy was mentioned to have improved.

Monsters
Information to be added later on.
