History
[TO-DO]

Geography
Gorgehold is exclusively mountains and high hills with a touch of deep ravines and storming rivers.

Imports
Foods of all sorts from all neighboring counties with a tilted preference to dairy, grain and meat products at the cost of vegetable and fish products. Food trade is by far the most lucrative for the merchants. Gorgehold dwarves spend on average much more on their food items than any other people in the kingdom. Gorgehold dwarves appreciate good quality food and are also willing to pay for it.

Exports
Metal goods of all sorts. Gorgehold has around 1200 forges meaning that most households has their own forge! Most male dwarves are proficient smiths or miners or at least know some of the arts of casting, forging, smelting, founding, soldering, annealing, melting, bellows-building, filing, metal carving, metal jointing or machining. Gorgehold-manufactured metal goods are the highest quality ones and technically most advanced ones in the entire Cresia. Highly sought after items include weapons, armor, metallic luxury goods, nails, bolts, screws, axles, shafts (for wells), mechanical clocks, high-capacity bellows, locks, farm-tools (scythes, plows, etc) and gears.

Roughly 14000 inhabitants in total consisting of mainly dwarves (up to 90% in total with a slightly less average percentage in the capital city of Gorge).
