Since the early days, the resource rich Qianjin Province (also known as South Dalmacija) attracted gold diggers and adventurers in their search for riches. During the Youya Era, the region was popular among many residents of the Union of Apollo States, but simultaneously difficult to reach.
Except for the western coast lines, where several towns sprung up out of the ground, and the trade hubs around Lake Christoph, the dangerous region remained underpopulated. The endeavours of those who actually went to live there, laid the foundation of the Dalmacijan Imperial Gold Reserves (abbreviated to DIGR).
Both the rulers under the Jierdai Dynasty and Great Jing used its gold to back its currency. Kaiser Gaelen IV of Shireroth, descending from the Kildarian Dutchy, was well known for using the gold that had been dug in Qianjin for the construction of temples in Shirekeep. Silent witnesses to this spending drift, paid with Dalmacijan gold, are the collector items: pure golden coins of the Kaiser, which were divided among the locals of Shirekeep, and almost caused a hyperinflation.
Nowadays, the reserves are used to back up the Golden Kala, and every Great Apollonian has the right - at least in theory - to trade the Kala for a certain amount of gold.
