The seventeen Archducal Treasury Towns were created in the twenty fifth century during the rule of the Prince-Governors of [[Medibgóëse Empire|Medibgö]] when they were simply called the 'Treasury Towns of Bryndyd.' They rest upon the southern shore of [[Archduke's Bay]], west of the city of Bryndyd proper. They are principally engaged in commerce and retain many of their historic enterprises and commercial functions in the Archduchy of Asbardy.

The towns were created to pay for the court expenses of the Prince-Governor and were given special immunity from other taxes and generally had a lower rate of tax to encourage merchants to store and ship their warehouse through them into Bryndyd and Asbardy. All revenues generated from them were used not for the general expenses of the state, but to pay for the court expenses, including court maintenance and maintenance of the princely residence of the Prince-Governor and his entourage.

After the [[New Kalikán Empire|Thracian Empire]] defeated the [[Medibgóëse Empire]] in the twenty sixth century (2500's), the towns were retained as sources of revenue for the Thracian Vice-royal Duke who ruled Asbardy.  After the liberation of Asbardy in the [[Great Sky War]] and the establishment of the native monarchy, the Archduchy of Asbardy resumed the use of the towns for support revenues and the inchoate Archducal Diet renamed the towns the Archducal Treasury Towns.
