Valencia has become an important hub for the trading of eastern and western European relics. As such, Valencia has had to take great measures to ensure its own security, as it has had many a problem with dangerous pirates. The city is famed for such tight regulation, coming only second to Alexandria when it comes to document scrutiny and ship escorts. As well as this, a more suited climate has seen Valencia's rural community expand, and its agricultural industry is one of the richest in southern Europe.

A marvellous place to visit, Valencia has it all- gentle countryside, bustling city, white beaches- take your pick. However, make sure that all your documents and travel papers are organized, as the city's notorious customs and security system can delay you on arrival.
