Kingdom of Leedon

The Kingdom of Leedon is an equatorial country renowned for its spices and precious metals.

Location
Leedon is in the distant tropics. Whether or not it is on a separate continent from that of the events of Spice and Wolf is unclear, but it is only accessible by ship across two seas, a journey of approximately two months.

Population
The people of Leedon are predominantly of a non-white ethnicity. According to Lawrence, who only had secondhand knowledge of the country, they are "permanently tanned near black from the time they were born" and have a different language and culture.

Resources
Leedon is a major source of gold, silver, and iron. Its climate is conducive to growing spices, which are an important trade commodity. In particular, the region of Ramapata produces high-quality black pepper.

Trivia
Leedon is likely inspired by real-world India or South Asia.
