Lapody's access through the sea was traditionally through Southern Dericania in the lands which would become known as [[Burgundie]]. Following the [[First Fratricide]], the unification of Burgundie posed significant problems for the Lapodard-speaking princes of the Empire, as no available port city was located outside of Burgundie. Accordingly, the [[Imperial Diet]] granted permission to the Duke of Verecundia to rebuild the ancient city of Rufus Concordia on the east coast of what is today Lapody. Rufus Concordia used modern dynamite techniques to create a viable port infrastructure, and today it remains the largest port in the former Dericania region not held by [[Burgundie]]. Many roads and rail connections run west-to-east across Lapody to Rufus Concordia.
