The | The Court has been known for Achaea's first complex legal system, having surpassed both ancient Ashtan and Shallam in governmental politics. The Seneschal [[Elentari]] originally wrote the comprehensive city charter. The policies of Hashan are recorded in a single, albeit large, text called the '''[[Laws_of_Hashan|Great Canon of Hashan]]''' which can be found in a bookshelf in the [[news]]room. | ||
Under Elentari's leadership in Hashan's early years, her constitution was widely regarded by the intelligentsia as "the finest document of its kind yet written". It was Hashan that began the trend of formally binding guilds to cities, a trend that has been followed and formalised by each city to this day. Hashan was also lauded by the [[Sarapis|Creator]] as the best organized of the city-states. | Under Elentari's leadership in Hashan's early years, her constitution was widely regarded by the intelligentsia as "the finest document of its kind yet written".

It is also home of [[Gred]], the Hashan humgii. '''Founder's Monument''' north of the crossroads features statues as well of the city's mortal founders. The '''[[Dome of the Triad]]''' stands tall as a tribute to the divine [[Triad of the Night]] which used to patron Hashan in its early years, and the old '''Coliseum''' may be visited where gladiators used to spar. East of the Dome is Hashan's mysterious crumbling temple where dangerous [[spectre|spectres]] once roamed free. The [[Disc of the Nocturne]] was once housed here, but was taken by [[Tavarius]] and was later used to cause the time period known as the [[Eternal Night]]. | ||
