History
Goldfield was laid out to the west of Goldshire Hamlet by Audun Joel, Count of Elsyran, during the Imperial Republic of Shireroth. Following the foundation of the Kingdom of Ransenar in the aftermath of the Kalirion Fracture, the city was raised to serve as the new national capital, set apart from Goldshire Hamlet, where the legacies of Shirerithian rule ran deep.
The city would give its name to the Community of Goldfield, an economic Pact involving Ransenar, Natopia, and Nouvelle Alexandrie, which would subsequently develop into a significant bloc within the Raspur Pact.
During the period following accession into the Benacian Union in 1711 AN, the financial sector of Goldfield, centred around the city's bourse, swiftly grew to a position of preeminence in the Union-State, complemented by its relative proximity to Chryse, the union capital and main entrepot for trade with the wider Raspur Pact, and Teldrin, the primary seat of the Honourable Company in Benacia.
