Economics of the Sword Coast

[Mendoza]

Apologies if I posted this in the wrong sub-forum.


Is there any information on the economics of the Sword Coast? I assume pretty much every city on the server has some level of trade going on (even if not seen on the server). What trade goods does each city deal in? What are their exports/imports? Where are those imports coming from? Where are those exports going? Which cities are more trade heavy and which are more self-sufficient?

Sorry for the barrage of questions! I think there are plenty of creative ways to RP using some of this information. Maybe if this information was available somewhere on the forums it could encourage and influence some of the RP on the server.

We have a rather large list of lore accurate imports/exports in the SCCE forums, but only for Sword Coast coastal cities because that was what was ICly requested. I'm sure the list can easily be expanded should more people want to RP with that kind of information.

I'd post it all OOCly, but seeing as it came together because of RP, I don't want to belittle the labor it took to put it together just making it freely available. It shouldn't be too hard to access anyway, just nudge someone from the SCCE and I'm sure their characters can help out somehow.

(( But not my character because I'm retired! ))

Thanks Lyrewyn! I didn't realize some PCs had already begun collecting such information, and I am glad that the information is out there in some capacity.
