Sabadell owes its name to the hill on the southeastern border of the Shrine of Seeklander, which allowed the early counts to tax the trade routes going through: in the south between Gelene and Eidulb, in the north between Gelene, Shrine of Seeklander and Gaston. Due to relentless monster attacks, the hill is now abandoned and local ruler prefer to reside behind it, because the hill changes the trajectory of incoming monsters towards the west and north.
The north and south are separated by the forest of Ionia. The people of Ionia very distrustful to outsiders, but merchants looking for lumber claim that once you break though the tough outer shell, the Ionians are kindest of all people in the world. Ionia also attracts young men from the city who enjoy the hunting sport.
Thanks to the warmer summers the south is rich in vineyards like its neighbor Ammando, although the relatively high amount of precipitation provides grapes of lesser quality than the east of Ammando. Merchants who try to sell wine from Sabadell do this by referring to the hunt and claiming it has a 'wilder' taste than its Ammandan counterpart.
The north offers a beautiful scenery of bluebell meadows. The people have more in common with the people of Aquitain and produce wheat, although stones are produced on the foothills of the Mountain of Woo. The harsher life in the north causes the northerners to look at the south with both contempt and envy. The northerners often consider the southerners if not outright lazy at least not as hardworking.
Sabadell is made up of mostly farmers and traders, and there is no long standing militaristic culture here. As such, its citizens are not particularly good infantry soldiers or bowmen. Those soldiers that do call Sabadell home are good people, loyal to the army and follow orders diligently - they simply do not have any great skill that sets them apart from their peers.
