"Arlesites are passionate and romantic people, fond of poetry and duels."
-‘Peoples of East and West’, Douglas Robinson
Arlesites are one of the three ethincities of the Principate of Procer, located in southern Procer. There are nine Arlesite principalities. They border the Dominion of Levant, the Titanomachy, the Kingdom of Callow and the League of Free Cities. They also border the Waning Woods and the Brocelian. Their name comes from the ancient Arlesen Confederacy, which rebelled against Gigantes slavers.
The Arlesite principalities are:
Segovia: Northernmost Arlesite principality on Calernia's west coast. One of Procer's largest seaports. Ruled by Princess Luisa (Before Book 1) and Prince Alejandro (Book 4 - present)
Creusens: One of the Northern Arlesite principalities. It, Segovia and Iserre are known to have close ties with the Alamans principalities, such that their rulers were mentioned to have been 'raised Alamans'. Ruled by Prince Louis Rohanon (Book 1 - 5)
