Ithicana

Location from The Bridge Kingdom by Danielle L. Jensen

The Bridge Kingdom — a nation built on an island chain connected by the only bridge between two continents, where controlling the trade route IS the kingdom and defending it is the only job that matters.

Also known as: Ithicana, The Bridge Kingdom, The Kingdom of Ithicana

What They Know

• An island-chain kingdom built around the only bridge connecting two continents — trade tariffs are its entire economy
• The bridge's fortifications and defensive positions are the kingdom's most closely guarded secrets — exposure means invasion
• Small population limited by island carrying capacity — compensates with wealth, defensive terrain, and military expertise
• Politically isolated: no allies, only trade partners and potential invaders from both continental powers
• Lara's betrayal exposed the bridge's defenses to Maridrina, enabling the invasion that nearly destroyed the kingdom
• The people are insular and suspicious of outsiders by cultural necessity — trust is a luxury Ithicana can't afford
