Pentyre (officially Dinas Pentyre, Calbic for City of Pentyre) is the capital and largest city of Calbion. It is located on the Ynys y Calbain, the most populated talaith of the nation. Pentyre is one of the oldest Calbain cities, although it remained small until the 16th century AN. The later Princes of the Calbain held court in Pentyre, and although the city was not designated as a formal capital until 1596, it has been regarded as the birthplace of the Calbain nation. In modern times, Pentyre experienced a rapid growth due to industrialisation and the opening of international trade. The port of Pentyre is one of the largest entrepots in the world and the city has been a primary harbor for international trading companies since the 1630s. In addition to being the capital and the most populous city of Calbion, it is also the seat of government and home to Calfari Hall, the official residence of the Prince of the Calbain, as well as Harrow's Commons, the meeting place of the Cynulliad Cenedlaethol, Calbion's unicameral parliament.
