Geography
Kasai sits to the south of the Minkai peninsula just north of the Kamiteki River in the heart of the rich Kasai Province.[4] Kasai Harbor features a deep-water harbor that is filled with an abundant supply of fish. Kasai is a meticulously planned city boasting wide canals and well-defined districts and wards.[5]
Beyond the city
Three peripheral areas lie across the Hebigawa River that, although not considered part of the core of Kasai itself, are nevertheless important districts:
- Hitsugi District: unofficially governed by the yakuza
- Red Lantern District: entertainment district
- The Reeds: shanty town
Government
Kasai is the capital of Minkai and all power flows from the Imperial Palace from where the emperor rules with total authority from atop the Jade Throne.[5] The city has a strictly defined social hierarchy, with the Emperor, or their regent, at the top.[6]
