Esgaroth




 * Type: Market Town
 * Inhabitants: 90% Northman, 10% Mixed Mannish
 * Population: 910
 * Origin: Founded as independent town on the site of a seasonal trading station, c. TA 1240
 * Purpose: A market for most goods passing through northern Rhovanion; a regional focal point for rural Northmen in the region

Esgaroth is built upon great platforms above the Annen and is connected to land by a single bridge. The Men of Lake-town elect a Master every other year, but trade is the true ruler of Esgaroth. Most of the trade routes in the region pass through Esgaroth, and the Northmen who live there are surprisingly cosmopolitan.
