Transport in Malgrave

Transport in Malgrave is provided by an extensive network of railways, ferry services, bus routes and air corridors that cover the entire country with a noticeable but minor road network providing coverage across the country. Malgrave was the first country in Mystria to operate a maglev train which forms the backbone of its high speed rail network.

History

Malgrave was set with a series of challenges early in its history, a primary concern was the lack of any real transport infrastructure which was later compounded by resource shortages caused by Imerian naval activity. In spite of these issues, the country was able to establish a small railway network aided by trams and a few public roads for the movement of military goods.

At the time Malgrave also had a connection to the wider Mystrian community through a port in Admah which it used to receive limited goods from the outside world, although, such a pursuit was dangerous due to the Imerian blockade these convoys were well compensated for their travels and offered limited protection by the Malgravean Royal Navy.

After the Great Exodus, the United Kingdom of Malgrave had to start from scratch and rebuild assets that they had spent the past few decades building in the new homeland. Such efforts were delayed by the start of the Malgravean Civil War, however, efforts to supply different parts of Malgrave with an efficient transport network soon continued and it is often remarked that the construction of the metro system in Epping nearly thrust the country into economic ruin.
