Selkirk

Selkirk is roughly 1080 sq. miles in size. It contains no tribal lands or frontiers, but the Glacier Royal Preserve composes about 240 sq. miles of its land. It has nine towns and cities with a population between 500 and 10,000. On the Canadian-Cascadian border about 40 miles east of Radium is Calgary which is the only city to have a completely open border and encompass land owned by both nations.

Rayzel Regardie was made Duchess of Selkirk in 1867. She gave birth to her son Aaron Sinclair the falling year and when he was 23 years old, she arranged for him to receive the title and responsibility. Duke Aaron married his half-sister Daisy in 1899. Thier son Michael became Duke in 1934; he abdicated his title to his own son Christopher in 1965. Duke Christopher died in the Meta War and Catherine Sinclair accepted the peerage.

Calgary
With a metropolitan population of roughly 800,000 in 2005, Calgary is the largest city in Cascadia with more people living in a 40 sq. mile radius than inhabit most domains. Like Nexus City, it serves as a crossroad of culture and commerce.
