Melbourne is the second largest city in Australia and is the capital of the state of Victoria. From Federation to 1927 it was the nation's capital, until the purpose-built capital city of Canberra was sufficiently constructed.
For the SCA, a lot of Melbourne is part of the Barony of Stormhold, including the Canton of Dubh Thrian in the northern suburbs and the College of St Bartholomew at Melbourne University (Parkville). The south-eastern suburbs are the Shire of Krae Glas, and the Bass Coast area is the proposed Canton of Iseldir (previously Bryn a Mor). The shire also includes the College of St Monica at Monash University (Clayton). The eastern suburbs of Melbourne are part of the Shire of Arrowsreach (which is independent of Stormhold).
