The Royal Capital covered an expansive area.
At least, according to Vivian's explanation, Shane thought the size of the Royal Capital might rival that of some small countries from his previous life.
"The Royal Capital is divided into eight districts, corresponding to the directions of the eight city gates."
"The Eastern District is primarily a residential area, home to commoners and the dwellings of wealthy merchants."
"The Western District is the Noble District, which, as the name suggests, is where the nobles of the Royal Capital live. The higher the nobility's status, the closer they are to the center. Lesser nobles reside on the periphery. The hierarchy is quite clear. We just came from there."
"The Southern District is the workshop area, containing all sorts of industrial workshops. Whether it's the mixing of Magic Potions, the forging of Magic Weapons, or the creation of Magic Tools, nearly all the goods sold in the Capital's stores come from here."
