Icatia (EYE-kay-shuh[1]) was the empire of humans on the continent of Sarpadia on Dominaria, that consisted of towns and cities such as Montford and Trokair.
Description
Icatia was populated almost entirely by humans and was the largest of the Sarpadian empires. It had an extensive mercantile system, elected officials, vast medical expertise, and a powerful army.[2] Three of its cities are known by name - the northern outpost of Montford, the city of Trokair, and the capital, Windenby. Windenby was where Lady Margaret Ellsworth, Prime Minister of Icatia, dwelt and oversaw the Icatian government on behalf of King Henry Joseph.[3]
Icatia was also the home the Order of Leitbur a sect of clerics founded by Bethan Leitbur to worship the Hand of Justice. The Order of Leitbur directly opposed the Order of the Ebon Hand. Corruption ran rampant among Icatia's many officials, allowing Oliver Farrel to gain vast cult-like followers. On the surface, the Farrelites strove for political and social reform and believed that the Order of Leitbur hadn't gone far enough in opposing the Ebon Hand.[4] Icatia was destroyed by goblins and orcs.
