Beldra sits at the end of what has been frequently referred to as "Urcea's best natural harbor", Navesreca Bay, whose etymology originates with the Latin term for "sailor's rest". | |||
Beginning in the medieval period, Beldra became the primary {{wp|port of entry}} for all goods traded into and out of the [[Archduchy of Urceopolis]], and the city began to explode in size and activity beginning in the early 13th century. All trade imported into the Archduchy and, consequently, up the [[Urce River]] had to first be declared at Beldra with a registry of goods issued by Royal customs officials at the port of Beldra. Royal customs officials, and industries related to their work, became a major feature of Beldra from the medieval period up through the end of the early modern period. | |||
