While the King continued his speech, Dominic did quick mental math on what was left of Dagos' population.
The north central cities from Boscom to Helster had suffered significant storm damage, but they had survived the storm, the inland cities from Knazion to Soutford in the west had as well.
The east was basically empty by the time that the war ended, so Dominic didn't even bother to count them, but that left a huge amount of land completely vacant.
The Northern Peninsula wouldn't be ready for anyone to move back this year, even after the floods dropped.
If they tried to move people into a region with so many bodies, it would only lead to plague and disease running rampant. So, they would have to wait at least a year and then spend another cleaning up whatever was left.
For all practical purposes, the northern peninsula might as well be considered vacant in perpetuity.
