An alternat is one of the three subapitals of the Haacobin Empire. Due to the empire's size and separation of much of its dominions from the primary capital, Clementine, by threwdish land, the subcapitals were founded to exercise greater control over the empire's subjects. Substantial military and naval forces are thus stationed at each alternat for defense against enemies both human and monster, and to suppress rebellions.
The three alternats are:
- Campaline: The easternmost alternat, located on the Sink.
- Considine: Located on the Patricine and senior to the Serenine.
- Serenine: The southernmost, on the coast of the Lent.
Each alternat is considered a component of the Grand Tour and attracts tourists from across the land.
