Principality of Weissland

The heartland of the Empire, Weissland stands as an example to the rest of the provinces. Home to the capital metropolis Weissburg, Weissland is an extremely rich state. Famous for its fishing industry and its beverages, it has stood the test of time for over a millennia in the Empire's service. Being the home province, its state troopers are almost unrivaled in the whole empire.

As the oldest province, and the founding member of the Empire, Weissland is often called the heartland of the Empire. With Weissburg it's main capital, the Principality is prosperous and rich, as it's the heart of trade within the Empire. Many citizens here are zealous supporters of the Empire, such that Weissland has never had a rebellion in it's history, unlike other provinces. The War Industrial Complex in Weissland rivals Mettenland, with the arrival of the Mette's in former Weissland territory. Since the province is the heartland, many Emperors simply move to Weissland upon gaining the throne.

Exports
One of the first gun foundries in the Empire reside in the City of Weissburg, owned by the notorious Franz Eigenfurst, an underground gambler and criminal, who seems to always get past the law. The Weissburg Weapons Guild produces most of the armaments for the province, and a big chunk of the Empire’s Military Armoury. Many of the Provinces’ exports are as listed as:

1.	Fish and Seafood

2.	Weapons and Armour

3.	Live Animal Exports

4.	 Cannon and Arquebus

5.	Grains and other Cereals

6.	Wine

7.	Timber

Although Weissland has good farming land and vineyards, it gets outshined by the warmer parts of the Empire, which makes the Seafood and Fish the most stable export in the province behind armaments and gunnery. In the winter months it also supplies timber for the outlining provinces, but Weissburg Wood as it’s called is not good for normal construction, and its’ considerably flexible. However this makes Weissburg Wood good for ship building when paired with other types of wood such as Northern Pine, which mostly resides in the northern points of the provinces.

Imports
The Province Imports a lot of raw materials from the surrounding provinces in order to maintain its bustling industry. Many of the imports are as listed:

1.	Iron Ore

2.	Gun Powder

3.	Mette Steel (From Mettenland)

4.	Sol Coal (From Solenland)

5.	Bündeswick Wine

6.	Geese

7.	Bolphoric Coursers

With the high military presence in the province, it’s upmost important that the men are trained with the highest quality armour and weaponry. Bolphoric Coursers from the Bolphoric Valley are famous war horses that the Empire has utilised for hundreds of years, perhaps since the First Emperor.

Bündeswick Wine comes from the Bündeswick Vineyard near Handelsstadt. Mass produced to meet the high demand for the whole Empire, its‘ been the best Wine for decades as the Asteloff Vineyard was destroyed in the Latest War on the Legion, as Legion Marauder parties raided the countryside down near Handelsstadt and Ekrund Gate.

Mette Steel from the new province of Mettenland has tradition in the now destroyed Mettenheim, A people of great statue with Blonde hair and Blue Eyes. The secrets of how Mette Steel is created have not yet been given to the Emperor or the Weissburg Weapons Guild. In Imperial Trials after the refugees from Mettenheim arrived from their ancestral homeland, Mette Steel was compared to the upmost highest quality Weissburg Steel available. In tests Mette Steel held up extremely well compared to the normal steel plate. This is rumored as to why the Mette were accepted into the Empire to begin with. The Mette are actually similar to the peoples of the Empire, but with higher percentage of Blonde Hair.

Sol Coal is more or less enchanted coal from the province of Solenland.
