makes Terra spin. And, while some countries don’t trade as much as others, there is a regular exchange of goods, services, and information across the globe.
Northern Iskendurun and Southern Adamar are famous for their coffee export. Krezdiv is famous for its chocolate and magic. Dorath, home of the dwarves, is famous for its gems, precious metals, alcohol, and war machines. Glendar is famous for its wine. Cynsely has the best doctors and healers.
While many countries mint their own coins, the size and value is consistent throughout Terra. Different dealers assign different values to gems, depending on market saturation and personal preferences.
Often times, information is an even greater comodity than coins and gems. The exchange of information is especially valued by the rulers of countries. This is part of the reason Iskendurun is so well-known. Not only did Keegan, Duke of Kahn establish the Ghosts, it is believed he set up the Guild of Shadows too. Knowledge is power.
