Population density is realtively low, at 50 people per square mile (5,000 families per 24-mile hex), similar to Roman levels and far lower than Greek or Medival French levels. While some areas are richer than others, I'll use this average for the sake of simplicity.
All realms are city-states and thus considered "advanced" and urban, though in fact they are not very much technically advanced. They also have a centralized settlement pattern. This means that I always go down one row in Urban Population and down one row in Largest Settlement.
Harat has 8 hexes and a total population of 40,000 families. While it is a "Duchy" in ACKS terms it is ruled by Hardun, the Gladiator-King (who also happens to be a lizardman, more on that later). It has an urban population of 8,000 families, 4,000 of them in Harat itself, which is a proper City and a Class-III market. It is also moderately rich, with an average land revenue of 6gp.
Yimara has 9 hexes and a total population of 45,000 families. While it is a "Duchy" in ACKS terms it is ruled by the corrupt King Balrazar. It has an urban population of 9,000 families, 5,000 of them in Yimara itself, which is a Large City and a Class-II market. It is also a rich realm with highly fertile farmland, with an average land revenue of 8gp.
Khishrom has 9 hexes and a total population of 45,000 families. While it is a "Duchy" in ACKS terms it is ruled by the even-handed King Adyan. It has an urban population of 9,000 families, 4,000 of them in Khishrom itself, which is a City and a Class-III market. It is also relatively rich, with an average land revenue of 7gp, mostly from mining.
Irem has 10 hexes and a total population of 50,000 families. While it is a "Duchy" in ACKS terms it is ruled by the Merchant-Prince Argum. It has an urban population of 10,000 families, 4,500 of them in Irem itself, which is a City and a Class-III market. It is also realtively poor, mostly desert and grazing land, with an average land revenue of 4gp.
Zarnas has 9 hexes and a total population of 45,000 families. While it is a "Duchy" in ACKS terms it is ruled by the Eternal Pharaoh Pilsar IV from his seclusion in the Great Pyramid. It has an urban population of 9,500 families, 4,000 of them in half-dead Zarnas itself, which is a City and a Class-III market. It is also quite rich with an average land revenue of 8gp.
The City of the Crescent Sun has 11 hexes and a total population of 55,000 families. While it is a "Duchy" in ACKS terms it is ruled by the Lizard-Queen Xelana. It has an urban population of 11,000 families, 5,500 of them in The City of the Crescent Sun itself, which is a Large City and a Class-II market. It is also avarage economically, with an average land revenue of 6gp.
The (Chaotic) City of the Sunken Moon has 7 hexes and a total population of 35,000 families. While it is a "Duchy" in ACKS terms it is ruled by the mad Lizard-Sorceress Manatxu. It has an urban population of 7,000 families, 3,500 of them in The City of the Sunken Moon itself, which is a proper City and a Class-III market. It is also moderately rich, with an average land revenue of 7gp.
Cibola has 18 hexes, divided into three districts ("Duchies"), and a total population of 90,000 families. While it is a "Principality" in ACKS terms it is ruled by the High Priestess of Ixchala, Nalana. It has an urban population of 18,000 families, 9,000 of them in Cibola itself, which is a Large City and a Class-II market. It is also fabolously rich, with an average land revenue of 9gp.
